[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] M3PH:
and whats wrong with a medium capacity usb flash drive that can be picked up from many good online retailers for less then £5? Why on earth would you want to put your phone anywhere near your ps3? considering that sony will be working on a way to stop the "jailbreak" (what a stupid term anyway. It's a proper hack, done the good ol' fashioned way). You should think yourselves lucky. I remember when if you wanted to play your illegally downloaded games on an xbox or psx you had to get the soldering irons, spend a lot of money on addon chips and hope you had a steady enough hand not to brick your £300 games console but that's what you going to do isn't it? playing illegally downloaded games - probably on your mates ps3 - and your too cheap to buy a usb flash drive and would rather risk letting sony find a way to brick your phone for having the hack saved on it.

Young Sir, you are very foolish. Firstly, you are actually breaking forum rules and secondly your gonna risk your very expensive, frankly awesome smartphone on what i can only describe as a folly.

I will leave you with this thought, though. If you are intent on breaking the law, spend some money on a proper gaming spec pc. At least then no one will be able to make it stop working just because you did what YOU wanted to do with it, instead of doing what the manufacturer wants you to do with it and plus, i'm sure mommy won't mind ;)

this exploit is very interesting for the homebrews, the développement of app... Like the PSP, I buy games but i prefere custom firmware. With him i can do more than a psp with official firmware...

And "secondly your gonna risk your very expensive, frankly awesome smartphone on what i can only describe as a folly." When you do a hspl and whan you flash your phone and you install a new rom... it s not a folly?

:)

sorry for my english...
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] conantroutman:
lol im getting more and more confused now.......

I cant tell whether people are claiming they can emulate the ps3 on the hd2........

(which seems pretty bloody unlikely to me)

Or simply use the hd2 instead of a flash drive to store this alleged "jailbreak" and deploy it to the ps3......

If its the second one............ why the hell would you not just use a flash drive..??

Im not getting into the issues around whether its right to hack your ps3 or not...

Although I certainly wont be risking bricking mine...........

I remember back in the "good old days" of soldering irons..... it was called chipping...... makes me feel old...........:( and confused :confused:

I'll be pissing myself and eating through a tube before long...........

At least I'll have a working phone and ps3 though..:p

Oh well..... get ready for a flood of....... psgroove bricked my hd2 HELP!!!!! type threads......

Safety first Kiddies.........
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] M3PH:
Just to clarify. The link i posted is confirmation that as of right now the hacks will not work at all if you update your ps3 with the latest security patch and i'm willing to bet a lot of people have blindly done it already, and rightly so, but i do sincerley suspect that is only the first step and there *may* just be a further update that *may* cause data loss or damage to any flash based device that is plugged into the ps3. TBH i really won't put it passed sony to do something like that in an attempt to protect their intellectual property.
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] conantroutman:
Its fair enough as far as im concerned......... you hack it, you risk it.....

the ps3 hasnt exactly been sony's most profitable product so they're bound to try and protect it by any means possible..........

Thanks for clearing that up for me man...... :D
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] M3PH:
No worries. I've been chuckling my way round the office since i saw that. Lucky prediction or what?

To the OP,

Flashing my phone with a new boot loader and a microsoft approved operating system is by no means a folly as it is reversible. Sony bricking your top of the line smartphone because you broke their terms and conditions, the law - in pretty much every developed country there is - is very much a folly.

To be sure you understand, folly means the following:

A lack of good sense, understanding, or foresight.

An act or instance of foolishness: regretted the follies of his youth.

A costly undertaking having an absurd or ruinous outcome.

Sorry if that seemed condesending but i'm just trying to make sure you get my point. I would say it's not worth the risk (oh, wait, i did) but now it's impossible so the thread is dead
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] undeuxtrois:
hmmm. If i posted this question here, it s to know if someone here s working on this exploit. it s a challenge... a lot s of good devs do it on Iphone, Android phone, texas instrument, nokia phone, palm phone...

With this exploit we will don t brik a ps3 or a phone or a phone... maybe we can have our psn acount banned... So it s our problem. ^^

hack digitals gadget isn t to have free games... it s for have MORE possibilitys!

homebrews, movies on MKV, retrocompatibility.... etc etc...

If i do a ps3 jailbreak, i assum it... I m an adult, and a father too. ^^

I just tried to know, why the others scenes (iphone, android, symbian...) are more exciting about this...

Sorry if that seemed condesending but i'm just trying to make sure you get my point. I would say

it's worth the risk

. but now it's always possible. My ps3 is always on the last firmware...

Were you having a bad day? :confused:I never said I was going to use my Hd2 to do this did I? I have no interest in hacking my ps3 because I only play a couple of games and always online so I have no intention of hacking it, but you jump in with two feet and made your presumptions. Your 'my mommy won't mind' comment is a cheap childish attempt to antagonise. Yawn

Yes breaking the law is not a very good or acceptable thing to do and I advice against it. But at the same time a company intentionally damaging someone private property is not acceptable at all and should be looked down on in the same manner.

I know it is a old thread but just had to say that.

I runt the haret file, the "shutting down hardware

Turning off MMU" etc text shows up, but at the point when the ubuntu should be booting, the text (shutting down hardware

Turning off MMU, jumping to kernel...) just fades out, screen goes blank and nothing happens.

I am currently using a 4gig SD card, could this be the problem, do i need more space?

I didnt find any other posts with this problem described so answers are greatly appreciated.

Is your location information in your Facebook account correct? Near as I can tell Facebook "time" is relative to your physical location insofar as it relates to GMT time. If you've moved, for instance, and are now 7 hours further around the globe in relative GMT time than you were, this might be why. My facebook calendar's time is syncing correctly here. Best of luck if my thought is way off base. :)
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ledbetter.james:
Thanks for the thought. How would I change my fb time? I looked@ my locations and they are accurate.

What makes this soooooo weird its that all the times are fine in android calendar app, but the widget is what's messed up. I am going to try to call tmo today, but I usually have better luck here. Please help of you have any thoughts....

[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] samsamuel:
easy, create a normal shortcut to the program, (tested this with opera and iexp,) don't have sky installed but probably works, i think its a browser standard, it works on the pc too.) then copy the shortcut to your pc (or i used notepad for win mobile)

open the .lnk file in notepad, you will see

22#"\Windows\opera9.exe"

then just add a space followed by your url

22#"\Windows\opera9.exe" http://samsamuel.co.uk

or

24#"\Windows\iexplore.exe" http://samsamuel.co.uk

save it, copy back to phone and drop into windows/start menu/programs to be able to assign to quicklinks, or wherever you want to store them.

Hi all

I need an app that will let me overlay gps data over a map. Now I have some GPX files which are easy converted to KMZ files and can be viewed using google maps but the problem I have is that I want to use these files in more remote areas where data connection is likely to be lost.

Is there any way to download google maps so I could still use these files just by using a GPS signal? If not is there an alternative way of using these GPS files?

Also does anyone know of any other tracking/fitness/cycling apps? I have MY TRACKS and CARDIO TRAINER.

DataInputStream inputStream = new DataInputStream(process.getInputStream());

outputStream.writeBytes(command + "\n");

Will I void my warranty by rooting my phone?

If so are there ways to enhance the phone without voiding the warranty? Like any custom roms that don't require the phone to be rooted?
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mmegalodon:
To flash a ROM you need root. Root voids warranty. You can always revert as if you "never rooted" in case you need to take your phone in.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Ddt928:
THere is no way they can void your warranty over the air? If not it sounds like my only danger is bricking the phone.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mmegalodon:
Not exactly sure what you mean by that; like if you root they somehow can tell "wirelessly" that you have, thus voiding. Not that I have heard. There was something like that with the iPhone I believe hearing, maybe not though. Or something they were working on, meaning not released.

And in terms of bricking your phone, that is supposed to be incredibly hard. Am sure someone has done it somewhere but you should be fine. ;)

Whats your radio, prl and pri. Do you have bad reception or just low bars. You might just need the visual signal fix since it seems to be an issue with this rom... but it is only visual. Flash fresh 2.33 And look and compare the dbm out put to what cm6 dbm out put if there's a difference try updating your prl and pri before your radio... if still different dbm out compared too fresh then update your radio... most likely its just visual and most of the themes fixs that and there's a fixs on here just for the bars.
