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

i have Rooted my desire using standard unrevoked 321,

confirmed working in adbshell.

Installed superuser and Root explorer

Granted Root explorer rights in superuser

Went in to the root explorer.

Went to my desired location to delete in this case ringtone files to clear valuable space. System/media/ blabla

enabled r/w and deleted the files i wanted.

Now i come to the point that when i either press back and disable r/w or just exit the explorer in all my desire resets and the ringtones are back in place.

It seems that i dont get full control even though i have this confirmed using the Su and id command in sdb shell

Any clearafication would be much apreciated.

Regards
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] buzmay:
You need to have S-OFF in order to delete those files that come with the phone.

Check this http://alpharev.shadowchild.nl/ and http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=794314

Once you do this it should not be a problem at all to perform what you want to.

And the alpharev method is reliable and fast :)

I tried using the 1-Click Universal App to root my Eris (as well as the Root For Dummies on Android Forums) and my trackball does not toggle in the recovery menu. It works just fine at any other time. I've read many ppl have this same issue. Short of getting a replacement refurb or manually typing in code (I'm a tech idiot) - is there anything I can do or has anyone developed a SIMPLE root process that doesn't require the trackball to toggle in the recovery menu?
[Droid Eris General] kzoodroid:
i don't think anyone will respond as this same question has been asked numerous times in the past few days. there is no easy 1 click fix, if you follow the threads on android forums scary alien gave a method on how to do it but its not easy and i'm not the one to ask how to do it.

post #21 of the thread linked to below has another link to the method you have to use. and again it ain't the easiest thing to do.

http://androidforums.com/eris-all-things-root/192444-need-help-putting-froyo-my-eris.html

the link to teh actual method used is here, on post #12

http://androidforums.com/eris-all-things-root/163423-flashing-rom-trackball-not-working.html

ask erisuser1 or scary alien how to do it.
[Droid Eris General] superdusto:
Most eris' are messed up when plugged into a usb try wiggling the cable and it should move you trackball down. ;)
[Droid Eris General] Ramengelion:
I had the same issue. My solution was to work around it! I obtained root using Universal Root, an app I found with a little Googling, then the Clockworkmod Recovery.	The latter of the two make use of the volume rocker to make selections, which will circumvent your track ball issue.
[Droid Eris General] bmxfelon420:
I'd just look up the tutorial to run the install from ADB. Not as simple as installing the app and rebooting twice, but it works. That's how i did my first root.
[Droid Eris General] vash8806:
okay..heres a workaround for you....

hook your phone up to your charger...then turn it on into recovery...

while wiggling the wire around at the base of the phone, scroll your trackerball up and down...and woilah!!! it works!!

read it on androidforum or something....i used it to flashback and am taking it to verizon soon.
[Droid Eris General] C.Hatfield:
+1 on the previous technique !! I tried to root my eris for almost 2 months but could never get the trackball to scroll in recovery. it was incredibly frustrating. finally, after all those failed attempts, the wiggling/pushing the cord will definitely work !!!! rooting was a beautiful thing, especially after all that effort, with such a simple/non-technical fix !!!!

[Droid Eris General] johnrbrown1968:
I watched a Youtube clip, and I don't remember the Droid forum I saw it in, but people have corrected trackball issues by ::

1. get a blank, white sheet of paper

2. lock your screen

3. turn phone upside down and place it on the paper

4. move it back and forth quickly on the paper surface

5. repeat as necessary ....

Worked multiple times, and other people who've used the technique says it works great.

What it does, cleans off dirt, grit, grime, residue, loosening the trackball back to normal behavior.

- JB

p.s. If you ever think your trackball stopped lighting up, consider the battery level ... I figured out today that my trackball had stopped lighting up, because battery level dropped below 15%.
[Droid Eris General] Phenom718:
scary alien modified (with help from ra and others) the ra recovery so that the use of a trackball is no longer required.

[Droid Eris General] jayram1408:
Eris with bad trackball. Simple fix for root, recovery and roms.

Go get the Unrevoked painless reflash and get the Amon_RA recovery for non working trackball. The unrevoked has a option to use a custom recovery instead of Clockwork, which tends to brick Eris' anyway. Too easy!

[Windows Mobile Software Development] donyk:
Hello Everybody,

As a profane developer , I am trying the following on my htc T5353.

I have a central pbx at the office and I would like a software that when running, makes all calls going through the central in this way: I call a number, then I receive a tone, then I send the real number I want to call.

I don’t know how to “intercept” an outgoing call so to make it going through my routine.

Alternatively, I could split in two the green button (“TALK”) in the default call program and use one for standard calls and the other for calls going through my routine.

However, I don’t know how to modify the standard call-program.

Thanks a lot in advance for your help.

[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] knäckor:
I know there are loads of threads concerning this issue, but I didn'find the solution in one of them.

The weather-widget on the hometab of my HD2 shows the wrong location. It shows the location in the settings-time/date tab, not the location that is acquired through the network. When entering the weathertab also the location in the settings-time/date tab is shown, and the correct location (with the correct weather) is one swipe down. So the location service seems to work properly, the weather is also updated fine, I only need to get the weather-widget to display the right location instead of the location in the settings-time/date tab.

I'm getting pretty annoyed by this bug, can someone help me out?
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] knäckor:
:rolleyes: Okay, I feel a little stupid now.

I tapped the sun/moon on the homscreen to find the solution in the weather-widget. You can add, delete and organize locations there, but you can't set the location to be displayed. By tapping the clock instead of the sun/moon, you can set the locationto be displayed on the homescreen.

Problem solved!

or is there a way to extract apk from stock rom? e.g. sbf files?
[Milestone XT720 Themes and Apps] kousik:
I use Linux so I can tell you an easy way.

(1) Download sbf_flash utility http://dl.opticaldelusion.org/sbf_flash

(2) ./sbf_flash -x STR_xxxxxxx.sbf (no need to connect the phone)

It'll produce a lot of .img files, you want CG39.img

(3) Get unyaffs utility from http://code.google.com/p/unyaffs/downloads/list

(4) ./unyaffs CG39.img

It'll extract whole /system directory, pick up whatever needed!

There would be ways to do the same in Windows too but I don't know.

Attaching 2 apks from Central Europe sbf, check if they work for you.
[Desire General] AdrianE46:
I just rooted my Desire today using Unrevoked and then flashed Leedroid v2.2 Froyo using Rom Manager. After restoring everything with Titanium backup I noticed that the widgets weren't working and in their place "Problem loading gadget" was written. I think it's because the rom come with A2SD+ and the widgets don't work from the SD card. How do I move them back to the internal memory, because I've been at this all day (searching forums and inside the phone itself) and I can't for the life of me figure out how to fix this. Please help.:mad:
[Desire General] michaffm1964:
With A2SD+ This procedure will move them from SD-Card .android-secure to SD-Card Ext3 Partition, so this will not help.

I have the same problem, it is related to the Titanium-Restore. Remove the widgets from the screen and reposition them and everything is fine.
[Desire General] AdrianE46:
Thanks for the help. I already figured it out last night, just never bothered updating the thread. :P

Hero, good to see you back on here boss. Your work is "epic"

As for everyone on here that is complaining about heros "attitude" towards others, look at your posts to anyone who is a dubbed "noob" or to anyone who has posted something in the wrong section.

As far as the monetary stand point, hero posts stuff on his site first. He let's you know you can get it early at his site for a small donation for his work. He gives you the option to wait a few days for the free release on here. If your stingy, patience is a virtue. If you can't wait, cough up 5 bucks. Don't go get krispee kremes in the am and donate for an early release. Its his roms/kernels. He made them himself, i.e. he can do what he wants with them. At least he makes not only a good product, but the f'n best one there is.

That is all.

[Epic 4G General] Firon:
Donateware sucks. Also, he isn't posting sources for his kernels, which is a GPL violation. But all he cares about is getting credit and getting his 'donations', so of course, he wouldn't give a **** about something silly like violating the kernel's license.

Getting donations for your work is cool. The problem is when you start requiring it to get access.
[Epic 4G General] ghostrid3r:
Extremes people go to just a make a buck. Haha

I vote keep his vapor/delayed/donatewares threads closed/removed til he learns to play nice in the Epic section. ;)

Tis true, i'd venture to say if his products were to be audited, there would be numerous GPL violations.

[Epic 4G General] Geniusdog254:
Really? We've accomplished nothing? He changed a few PNGs to make it look something like Sense. He built a kernel. I have a kernel here that many people report as exemplary. How about you start doing something instead of belittling what those of us who actually follow XDA rules do here.

Either that or go troll in Hero's forums, and don't use any of our hard work. But I'm sure you don't like that idea.

(Btw, I have nothing against Hero. I don't like the way he operates, and his ROM just isn't for me, but I have nothing against the guy)
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] TheATHEiST:
Hi as title says I want to know how to transfer files propelry while booted into android kernel.

For example when you plug in your phone vai USB and use as card reader I can easily transfer files to and from but the problem is that when I unplug and go to view these files on phone the file system hasn't updated and I cant locate them on card.

Ive tried the unmount feature aswell as a hot reboot but nothing. Only way I can seem to do it is to power off and then boot back into android.

Is there any easier way or procedure that I need to follow?
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] Nismo300zx:
best bet is to load the files in winmo then boot into android
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] TheATHEiST:
Dude that wasnt my question, obviously I can do that, thats not the point.

My question was the best way to transfer files while booted into android, if it possible then obviously booting into windows and back to android every time you want to move/access files isnt the "best" way and its inconvient.

I appreciate your reply but your answer was irelivant unless its the ONLY way which I doubt (well hope) :rolleyes:

Does anybody have a solution?
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] StephanV:
As of now, the only good way to transfer files is indeed through WinMo (or with a MicroSD USB reader, with phone powered off or in WinMo). Most Android builds support USB Mass Storage, but I haven't heard of one that handles it perfectly (which isn't too surprising, considering Android runs -sort of- from the SD card).

So in short, no there is no other way at this moment that I know of.

Edit: There is a way: through WiFi! There are some applications available on the market that turn your phone into an FTP-server, I use Websharing (Lite) for this. They don't need an unmounted SD card, so they'll probably solve your problem.
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] TheATHEiST:
Yeah I was thinking more of teh same route, Ive been using drop box for the moment but FTP server would be much better.

I was hoping there would be a solution to been able to access teh files that have been sent via mass storage mode but this could be just as good.

thnx for suggestion.
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] baymon:
This is not a quickfix, but I was frustrated with the same problem last night when I was trying to locate the files that I just transferred to the phone. I noticed that unmounting, and remounting doesn't refresh the folders in the system. But I managed to find the transferred files after unmounting the sd card, and then browsing to the root sd card path instead of the mounted partition.

So, instead of mnt/sdcard/ you should look for the files in /sdcard after unmounting the card. See if that works, at least it worked for me last night.

[Captivate General] TitoG:
As a newcomer to the world of android (I just migrated from iPhone 4), I must confess that the multitude of advice and recommendations from the advise givers are clouded with wrong advice and misleading recommendations.

I am very knowledgeable in computers, and was quite knowledgeable with the various iPhones I owned. but with the Galaxy S (Captivate) I just purchased I am ready to give up....

Is there anybody kind enough who can explain to me why is it that I am unable to access my phone from my computer (W7x64 nor from my MacBook).

I was able to root the phone and even flash it with the Froyo, Cognition 2.2 Beta 5.5, from the phone itself (using the online advice from the Cognition web site), but can not access the phone, thus unable to move files to the SDCARD root directory.
[Captivate General] Krad:
download the kies mini application from samsung.com

install it, which will install the drivers needed.

then go to settings->application->usb and select usb storage.

then go to touchwiz home screen only, and plug in your phone.

easy peasy...

if you have another launcher in place, turn on usb debugging under the development section of applications in settings and then plug it in... then pull down notification from top and select usb.. it will ask you to mount.

boom... done and done.
[Captivate General] crystalhand:
Semi wrong info is given above. For a mac(I also have a pro) you should just have to turn on usb debygging mode under application settings. You will not be able to control the phone as easily as with the iphone but you will have access to your sd card and internal memory.

No need for drives but you will need to mount it
[Captivate General] mobius911:
And on a pc, enable usb debugging in settings-applications-development. Then pull down the notification screen and press the option that says something like select to copy files. You can then access the internal and external sd cards as drives on your computer.
[Captivate General] alphadog00:
Actually, you don't need to enable USB debugging, you just select the option to "always ask" or "mass storage" and then you get the pull down option to mount the drive to copy files.
[Captivate General] mobius911:
Interestingly that option stopped working for me many ROMs ago. Not sure why, bu the only way I could do it was using the debugging route. I am currently on Cognition 2.2Beta5.5, so I decided to check mass storage since I hadn't tried it in a while. It worked! So if anyway else out there can't do it using "always ask" or "mass storage", then the debugging method can be used as an alternate. Thanks for bringing this up.

And as a general comment on the original title of the post, things move fast. What was accurate for one person on his/her phone at one particular moment may not be the best or even the right way to do it on your phone, in your situation, with whatever ROM you are running. So if you want to hack your phone then expect to have to spend a lot of time reading and perhaps even making a few mistakes along the way.
