Lol yea I think its a advantage since android is based of a some kind of Linux platform I think give me a couple of days to do some more research and post a more detailed answer for u I have adb on windows vista ultimate and 7 ultimate and by far it just seems easiest on Ubuntu but it could b just me I'm settings up my work space with c++ and Solaris to start a little Dev myself so ill definitely keep posting and let u know if I notice any major difference till then a cook away

You're right, I shouldn't have said "mine" since I got them from many sites. I just put them together, by the time I was done with my research I didn't remember from which sites I got them, but anyways, setting up Adb in Macs is a lot easier than Windows and Ubuntu ;)
[Hero CDMA Android Development] jschill31:
Sounds good to me, BTW I guess it did come off as kind of a funny question. I do know that Android is Linux, hence the Ubuntu laptop for cooking.:) I mostly have been using adb for simple entries or to push something but frankly it is easier to open Terminal Emulator on my phone for those. I have never had any issues using it in Windows, I just am curious if there is a true advantage to doing it in Ubuntu since it is kind of the same scenerio... You are still using a program within an operating system to do anything. Ubuntu is Linux but it is the "Windows" version of Linux. Try using Slax to do anything and you will know what I mean. I too am new to cooking as well as Android but not to modding electronics, it kind of my hobbie as well as my job. I have been tweaking things for almost 20 years now, Android is just my new flavor. I would love to share info back and forth with you since it seems we are both messing with the same stuff at the same time. I spun up my first rom a couple of days ago and for some reason it get stuck in a boot loop...I am bummed. I got it signed and it flashed my first try so it is just something stupid I am missing. I am learning the ropes in Ubuntu and amazed at how good it runs on my old laptop. Man they got some crazy comands, it blows me away at some of the $hit you have to type. Anyway I highjacked your post enough, if you would like to share info down the road just pm me.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] laie1472:
Yes yes and yes I love knowledge dude lol the more the better and I'm not done setting up my work space yet so I'm not cooking just yet were tweaking a server now to host u know putting it all together but by the end of next week u might smell something in the kitchen and man ur right Ubuntu makes my HP faster than windows 7 every did and the cube is awesome the commands take a little time to get used to imo- but a I started windows back in the early 90s so its time for a change and android is byfar the best mobile platform imo- the possibilities are just endless the first thing im going to do wen were all setup is port over this theme called bx for cm6 stable then imma start the cooking ill most def b on this thread every day checking on what's going on and ill definitely pm you thanks and if you guys need anything if can help let me know

Right on, it is kind of exciting. I really don't have a clue except for what others have done and compiled. The good part is all of the information does seem to be here, there are a lot of good devs still working on the Hero out of pride for it. I just was over on the rom side and nfinite and decad3nce ported a 2.2 sense rom from the wildfire. It is a different screen size than our Hero's but I can't think of anything better than messing with a 2.2 sense rom. I realize I won't get anywhere but it should be challenging and I might learn a thing or two. Those guys rock, they will get something out in a week or so. That means that everyone on this forum with be doing the same thing for once, it should prove to be an interesting weekend. It sounds like you will be hitting it pretty hard once you get dialed in, I will deffinately keep an eye on this thread. One thing that would be a cool idea if you had to time would be to use the thread as an on-going cooking forum. People could post random things they have figured out and all could add. It would grow fast and keep everybody busy. Goto roll, I want to flash that 2.2 sense yet tonight and I am getting old...
[Hero CDMA Android Development] jschill31:
Totally spaced off and forgot to say BX looks cool. I remember seeing something on this some time ago and thought the orange was cool and different.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] laie1472:
Lol that's an excellent idea I don't use sense but Im definitely gonna c what I can do to help to get it up and running for those who do I don't mind a good challenge and yes this thread will and can b used for posting all about cooking roms and what everyone has figured out to do lol and what not to do I think if enough people post trial and error it would make cooking a little easier so all are welcome sense or aosp it's all just amazing to me so much you can do still trips me out wen I think about it and yes the professor and I will b at it pretty good once were setup so lll b on here daily thanks for the idea its a good one

Excellent, it is always good to work together. I played with the 2.2 sense last night for about an hour till I was missing ASOP. I will totally give the BX theme a test drive, another one that looks interesting is the Green theme. The dev seems really cool if you read his posts, I think he is kinda new to the game as well. I keep going back to the Blue themed CM6 2.2 rom, it just works for me. The thing that bugged me last time I ran a RC1 version was it struggled remembering icons? I think the one I was running also would forget the programs that were installed on the card after a re-boot. I know the dev plans on putting out RC2 soon, I was going to play with it again after that. Well I better get to working for now, peace!

Darchstar released CM6 Stable and I've had it since the release date and I've had not one single problem data speeds are excellent mobile signal stays strong battery life is outstanding finds all of my networks the apps I use run fine without any hitch I'm using Dead3nce kernels instead of the ones that come with it because I love to overclock and I have no lag also ive never had any problems with the stables or the bfs he has a couple so u might wanna check out the thread the Dev goes out of his way to give u a detailed description of what the kernels are all about and you might catch him on the thread from time to time u can find CM6 Stable under the android development section if your ever interested both of the threads are highly popular and you can find some good knowledge on both I prefer aosp and that's gonna b my main focus wen I'm up and running so if I can help in anyway let me know the green theme is definitely a keeper I have a nand of that one in the collection and yea the Dev seems really cool haven't posted anything over there because it worked for me no probs at all now that I think about I didn't give dude his must deserved thanks hold let me put this on hold b right back

Umm.. on the adb instructions...

I have been using adb for a while now on ubuntu and really no instructions are needed.

simply download the android linux specific sdk, extract to the desktop, plug in the phone, and in terminal go into the directory

Example....

When you open the terminal you will be at your home folder for your user. If you extracted to the desktop:

cd Desktop\android-sdk-linux\tools

./adb (whatever you want to put, ie. shell, remount, etc)

the only difference between using the two, is that you are using the run parameters of linux (./) in front of what you want to run (like adb) instead of just typing it like in windows/command prompt.

./adb shell <-Sometimes you have to type 'sudo' for it to work because of the way linux handles permissions (i.e. sudo ./adb remount)

./adb remount

SUDO! - sudo (super user do) is a command where you dont have to be root to use a root permissioned program, just that you need the password. This way you don't have to log out/in as root and then swap back to do something.

Examples:

sudo ps -A

sudo nautilus

sudo chmod 777

sudo ./adb remount

etc. etc. etc

if you have issues and need to shut down adb do this:

sudo killall adb

or if you want to do it without sudo,

type ps -a (gives you all the programs running and their pid numbers, find adb and it's pid)

and then type:

kill (pid number)

some other things of note:

mkdir (makes a directory)

rmdir (removes a directory)

cp (copy. Also used for renaming a file: example: cp com.android.test.apk com.android.crap.apk copys a file to that name effectively renaming it)

rm (removes a file)

chmod (this can do many things including but not limited to at all... setting permissions)

The way linux (and Android btw) handles permissions is by rank in numbers, starting from the lowest rank in number to the highest (1000)
here are a few numbers of note:
1000 - root
777 - administrative user/regular user
666 - readable/writable, but not executable
Examples of using chmod:

chmod 777 menu (if anyone has used the kitchen you know this) - sets permissions of menu (or whatever file) to the user level
chmod +x menu (+x makes menu executable, which you have to do before executing which is: ./menu)
Numbered permissions really do mean something for each of the three numbers.
7 7 7
Owner Group Other

More on the numbered permissions can be found here: http://www.elated.com/articles/understanding-permissions/ this is a GREAT resource.

Hope this helps!

I seem to have a problem with co pilot where it continues to run even after I exit it. However the app is not visible in task manager. when I go to battery use co pilot its the number one user when in fact the app isn't even running. Does anyone else have this problem?
[Galaxy S I9000 Themes and Apps] Bandis710:
Did you disable GPs after using Co pilot ?
[Galaxy S I9000 Themes and Apps] kg3:
Yes I have. In order to fully close it I have to reboot the phone otherwise it continues to eat away at my battery.
[Galaxy S I9000 Themes and Apps] Soniboy84:
Are you sure it's closed, and not just minimized? Which battery watch app you use? Might be problem with that not being accurate.
[Galaxy S I9000 Themes and Apps] steeeveen:
Same with copilot here.
[Galaxy S I9000 Themes and Apps] ickyboo:
I recommend you guys get into contact with makers of CoPilot as they might have fix or ideas.

+1, works just fine on my SGS.
[Galaxy S I9000 Themes and Apps] kg3:
It's closed. When im done with the app I click 'Quit CoPilot'. Weird, seems it works fine for some, but not others.
[Galaxy S I9000 Themes and Apps] snottyotter:
Same here, closed it, its defo not running, yet the about battery screen says its eating away at the power. The battery history screen (*#*#4636#*#*) says its sensor usage, so I guess its a GPS thing, but don't know why its accessing GPS when off. Im running oldish firmware so that might have something to do with it as the wifi is forever turning on & off, might be related.
[Galaxy S I9000 Themes and Apps] AllGamer:
odd, but when i close copilot it closes

make sure you close and hot hide away

when it closed it doesn't eat battery

besides it's not copilot that eats battery, it's the GPS

as long as the GPS is off even if copilot is on, it will not consume battery
[Galaxy S I9000 Themes and Apps] dagrim1:
Are you people closing it from within CoPilot itself? Or by pressing the back button on the phone...

Running copilot for quite a while already but never noticed this.
[Galaxy S I9000 Themes and Apps] AllGamer:
i use the EXIT button inside copilot itself

else it just goes into hiding, but still active
[Galaxy S I9000 Themes and Apps] Tehpriest:
Go to "Settings", "Applications", "manage applications", "running". See if it shows up in there. If not then it is not running and is being mis-reported.

BTW there is an update today.
[Galaxy S I9000 Themes and Apps] snottyotter:
I always exit from the exit menu within copilot and as far as I can tell its closed, but the battery statistics say its using gps, and therefore some battery, although doesn't seem to have gps active all the time. Might be a firmware bug as copilot wont always turn on gps, it'll just say no lock and the gps icon on the notification bar won't come on until I turn gps off and on again through the settings menu. Could be the opposite of that happening when you exit and gps isn't turned off correctly? Should get round to flashing newer firmware so I can turn it off and on from the notification bar but running ubuntu so not got kies working
[Galaxy S I9000 Themes and Apps] Ferdimage:
Edit: Oops didnt really read the 1st post, i thought battery drain while using copilot...

(anyways below might be useful to some :D)

i did get massive battery drainage using Copilot, until i changed the map color mode to always night :D

White on Amoled drains ya battery ive tested this with the phone charging on the car and still drained when on day colors and now on night it stays charged and slowly increases % :D

test it...
[Galaxy S I9000 Themes and Apps] AllGamer:
good idea, perhaps i should change mine to always night as well
[Galaxy S I9000 Themes and Apps] Ichigo66:
I had this problem also. i installed Copilot and noticed my phone battery was lasting at most a day all of a sudden i checked battery use in "About Phone" settings and copilot was the #1 user. i tried checking task manager but didnt show up, i checked that i didnt minimise it but i hadnt, i also checked that i quit the app from inside copilot not just hit the back button and i also checked my GPS was off but still my battery drained very quickly. I ended up uninstalling it since i have uninstalled my battery is back to normal. after checking that i could not get a refund i reinstalled it again today to see if it still happened or if there is a way i could fix it. So far the problem has not occured. But i make sure that exit copliot from the app itself and then i check task manager make sure it is not running in the background and i also clear memory to make sure everything is back to idle. since i have done this after each use i have not seen the problem re-occur. if it does come back i will have to uninstall again dont want to have to have my phone on charge all the time!!
[Galaxy S I9000 Themes and Apps] d0nald01:
random question, what map version are you guys using for copilot? because i heard they dont have an update for 2010, last time i tried they only had 2009 North America maps :(
[Galaxy S I9000 Themes and Apps] AllGamer:
if you go to their website and check on maps

http://www.alk.eu.com/copilot/maps.asp

you will see which regions have updated maps

mines are still stuck at Q4 - 2009

still waiting for 2010

the area were i live in, basically is not on the map literally, because is too new, so i'm looking forward to see the 2010 maps

[Windows Mobile Software Development] c.shah@quipment.nl:
I am getting

Can't find PInvoke DLL 'ril.dll'

error in Windows Mobile 6 and

failed to initialize RIL

error in Windows Mobile 6.5.

What can be the problem in using RIL (Radio Interface Library)?

How to check whether Radio Interface Library is intalled on my computer or not?
[Windows Mobile Software Development] stephj:
Never tried to use this stuff from C#, I've only ever called it directly from Win32 C++.

'RIL.DLL' exists in the \Windows directory of your device. You will have to use 'Show all files' in File Explorer to see it.

It also exists in the same place in the Emulator images.

When you call RIL_Initialise() you have to pass it addresses to call back routines that you supply.

Doing all this in a managed code environment could be a bit of nightmare.

in C++ this works:-

HRESULT hrRetVal= RIL_Initialize(1, ResultCallback, NotifyCallback, RIL_NCLASS_ALL, 0, &g_hril);

if hrRetVal is not returned as 'S_OK ' it didn't work!

The functions in the call are defined as :-

void CALLBACK	ResultCallback(DWORD dwCode,HRESULT hrCmdID,const void *lpData,DWORD cbData,DWORD dwParam);
void CALLBACK	NotifyCallback(DWORD dwCode,const void *lpData,DWORD cbData, DWORD dwParam);
