I noticed that, it just renamed it for some reason. I've installed it, and rooted it, but I'm unable to use Root Explorer because doesn't have root access. It's added in Superuser and worked when I used VISIONary :S
[Desire HD Android Development] bratfink:
...

Yes suprisingly? i have thought of that and it doesnt do anything, it just stays r/o no matter how many times i hit 'mount R/W'. Anyone else come across this or know how to fix it?
[Desire HD Android Development] :
one thing you can try - execute superuser, then delelte (clear) the permissions for root explorer. Then exceute Rootexplorer again, allow superuser access and check again
[Desire HD Android Development] andycap:
I have the same problem, root seems to have worked but I cannot get rw access to /system or /etc with root explorer.

Yes I have tried the re button but will not give rw.

Solved: I had old version of Root Explorer installed. Ran update and problem solved.
[Desire HD Android Development] bratfink:
Thanks

That seems to have worked, thanks alot! Now waiting for some genius to make our clockwork recovery image and port over the juicy cyanogenmod :D
[Desire HD Android Development] abrasive:
How do I do that? I've only got the option to Allow or Deny.
[Desire HD Android Development] :
here you go... hit "forget"
[Desire HD Android Development] adwinp:
This might be caused by an emmc partition table (mmc vs mtd)

In any case, temp root mounts system as ro, remount it as rw by hand:

su

mount -o remount,rw -t ext3 /dev/block/mmcblk0p25 /system

or just adb remount if you have an unsecured boot (ro.secure=0)
[Desire HD Android Development] abrasive:
I reinstalled the program and it works now. Something is wrong though, it still says same thing, only now there's no entry in Super user at all. VISIONary+ says my device is both temprooted and permrooted. If I try to Unroot nothing happens. If I install VISIONary (the one that was available on the market before and choose temproot there, everything works.
[Desire HD Android Development] :
Looks to me something went wrong in the process then. If rootexplorer is not requesting su access after clearing it from superuser the you don't have "root" as you already realized. The only advice I have is to reflash the RUU and try again...
[Desire HD Android Development] abrasive:
Well, funny thing is that it still works if I use VISIONary (from market) with temproot. Pretty strange. Anyway, what program is best for backing up contacts and SMS? I'm so new to Android that it's embarassing :/
[Desire HD Android Development] :
if you can temproot, one idea would be to manually push superuser.apk to /system/app and su to system/bin with the correct permissions...

like it says in the first post

temp-root

THEN load module again manually

THEN, when module executed:

You can now PERMROOT (once you load the module, just push su and Superuser.apk to /sdcard/)

and

copy su to /system/bin/

and Superuser.apk to /system/app/

Don't forget to suid su:

su

chmod 4755 /system/bin/su
[Desire HD Android Development] Evostance:
Got it sorted
[Desire HD Android Development] vibez:
I had a similar issue until I purchased the latest version of root explorer, then I could get RW in the system folder

So were's da mafaccin' "1click"root ?
[Desire HD Android Development] abrasive:
What does "push" mean?

Are you angry? And, don't mean to be a b*tch, but why would I donate to you?
[Desire HD Android Development] sfjuocekr:
I advice you dd both boot and recovery partitions to backup files top restore them.

So yes, it is as simple as backing up the modified parts and restoring them afterwards :)
[Desire HD Android Development] El_Nino9:
do NOT flash recovery like that

instead fastboot it. it is by far the safest way!

fastboot flash recovery recovery.img

if you are using windows make sure its in your tools directory or you cd to the recovery image location.
[Desire HD Android Development] El_Nino9:
push means adb push it is a command that comes with the android sdk

adb push su /system/bin/ (or you can use xbin instead of bin)

adb push superuser.apk /system/app

you do not adb install a file to have it in the system directory.

best way i have seen is that you use visionary after the s-off hboot has been flashed and then have terminal emulator installed from the market and type sync in the command. easiest "noob" way to do it in my personal opinion but i would recommend if you start to do flash things you learn how to use adb and fastboot
[Desire HD Android Development] HkDng:
wow ... nice to hear that permanent root for desire hd :)
[Desire HD Android Development] Eddie1506:
My understanding is that you can write a new recovery once you get perm root WITHOUT flashing hboot to get S-OFF? Is that correct, or will flashing the recovery work only after flashing the engineering hboot?
[Desire HD Android Development] El_Nino9:
an engineering bootloader allows you to "fastboot flash" any partition.

after the write protection has been stoped/removed you can write to the recovery partition with a custom one enabling you to flash a custom rom without a engineering bootloader i do beleive. but again developlers have full control over the phone with an engineering bootloader. i do keep stressing you mess that part up you end up with a brick but if you follow the instructions clealry it works.

i have always wanted s-off, i had it on G1, magic, even though hero did not require one i still flashed it(it allowed me to change the splash screen) and when the orignal desire got s-off i just had to jump on it.

i will go as far as say, if I mess up my phone, i know i have more chance recovering it as long as i can have access to the engineering bootloader.

it is also recommended that you flash radio's via fastboot and not recovery. every developer will agree with that,

[myTouch 3G, Magic General] Highl1:
My friend got a T-Mobile myTouch 3G from USA. They said to him that the phone is unlocked, and he still has a code recieved from T-Mobile. But, whenever the phone is switched on, there is no signal, and it asks me to input google account. Is there anyway to bypass it just to get in Android?

If another code is needed for buying, that's not a problem, but we just want to make the phone works.

thanks in advance!
[myTouch 3G, Magic General] nicknowsky:
are you talking about SIM LOCK?? if its still locked, put the NEW SIM card into the phone (not the t-mobile card). That will enable you to enter the UNLCOK code, which you will have to purchase elsewhere (look on ebay, i buy mine there)

Now the Google account is straightforward, come on everyone has a Google or Gmail account. When you turn the phone on and that Google account screen appears, hit MENU and WIRELESS SETTINGS will appear. Now connect to a WiFi network and log into you Gmail account.

If you dont goto Google NOW and get a account. Also make sure you post this in the GENERAL section or Q/A section, this is for ROMs and DEVs
[myTouch 3G, Magic General] Highl1:
No mate, you didn't understand me. His friend overseas got that phone, and sent it to him here in Serbia. Phone came in original T-Mobile pack, without the T-Mobile SIM card. He also got an unlock code from T-Mobile which he still has written on a piece of paper. But, when we enter any other SIM card (Telenor Serbia, VIP Serbia), we don't have signal, and we can't get through first screen which asks you for Google account. Since we don't have signal, we cannot use 3G/Edge data, and there is no way to use wireless (you cannot choose it).

So to be more clear, you power up the phone, there is emergency call button and change language button and Android logo. You click on Android, it asks you for Google account, but you cannot use wireless (and there is no signal to use data services)

So, the thing is, I posted it into Dev section so someone can say me if I can maybe flash some ROM onto it and disable this startup screen.

Thanks for your help anyway!
[myTouch 3G, Magic General] 5[Strogino]:
Did you press Menu at screen with google account? If your T-Mobile has Android 1.6 - there is options to setup wireless connection
[myTouch 3G, Magic General] Highl1:
Didn't think of that, thanks a million times!

There I cou'dve choose network and setup my APN, so after that everything worked

[Galaxy S I9000 General] opica:
No, probably not.

It's the same in samsungmobile for our country (Slovenia) and can't even install New PC Studio (running W7 x64), on samsungmobile sites for some other countries you can download Kies via firmware update, but it's some old version.

Samsung has pretty crappy support sites.

Oh and FW update will probably be available only through Kies (said in various samsung twitter accounts, I got the same information in our official service).

[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] GaRoK:
Good Morning everybody,

Yesterday i installed the darkstone android Froyo on my HTC HD2, it worked pretty fine.

I reboot the phone to finish the installation and everything was normal. I download apps on the market ... all's good.

But i realize taht i've got no ringstone, i plug the phone on the computer and put the "media file" in the SD card.

I reboot the mobile and try to launch CLRCAD and HARET but i got the followinf message "The file XXX cannot be opened. Either it is not signed with a trusted certificate or one of its components cannot be found"

I tried :

to format my SD,

to put a new install of android,

to reboot my phone,

to read different thread about this problem,

to test different program like Security configuration manager ...

I think that the problem doesn't come from Android build (it worked 2 times before) but win mobile ?

Here's my conf :

2.08 HDSPL

radio 2.12.50.02_2

darkstone froyo 2.1

rom 1.66 483 0 (76641) FRE (Bouygues telecom)

I don't understand what i did it wrong, it pretty worked and after 2 reboots i can't launch android.

Please can someone help me ?

Thanks in advance for your reply

Same issue

Hi,

I'm having this same issue. I hope someone can help. It doesn't seem to be an issue with the SD card. Did somehow the registry got corrupted? Please help.
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ConcernedGuy:
Registry restore did not fix issue

To test my theory that it was a registry issue, I restored the registry that I backed up before installing Android. It DID NOT fix the issue.

What does that mean? It seems that everything that comes with the WM ROM works fine. It only effects the applications that were installed and not OEM.
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ConcernedGuy:
I've now deleted my Android folder and the .folder and will see if that helps. I don't believe it will because I've removed the SD card and the programs I installed on the ROM still did not work. I'm hoping I don't need to do a hard reset. That would be a pain.

That only thing I did before having this issue was that I installed several games from the Android market place; final fantasy 6, angry birds, and a couple of others.

[Epic 4G General] cheema:
I am one of those people who listen to music mostly for background noise while I work. This means the music has to be quite low. I use ear buds to muffle out the outside noises. However this means that the lowest volume setting becomes too high. For me, most mp3 players suffered from this problem. Until I started using Rockbox firmware on my Sansa mp3 mplayer that offered 84 levels of volume control.

The Samsung Epic in comparison only offers 16 levels of volume adjustment. Is there a way to improve this volume level control? I briefly search Android Market but did not see anything relevant. May have overlooked.
[Epic 4G General] gobmonster:
I hate to be a douche, but i dont think more volume steps is all that necessary.

I use these "Sony Earbuds", they have there own inline volume controller so i can achieve practically as many steps as i can imagine (analogue adjuster)
