[G2 and Desire Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Android1126:
WOW

You guys still haven't figured this out? I've been USB tethering on my XP/Vista/and 7 box since the day i got the new OTA. You need the proper drivers and also have to configure windows to use RNDIS.

It is truly that simple. I've walked many people through this already and have now started charging!
[G2 and Desire Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Android1126:
BTW

All of the methods described by the majority of the members on this site are just way too many steps. You don't have to do anything other than install 2 proper drivers. You don't need PDANet nor do you need HTC sync. You just need to be tech savvy enough, not fone savvy.

Stop trolling!

Seriously, I've seen u post the same thing in forum after forum without actually helping anyone... do that business or get the pot. Why on earth would you rather have people email u privately for your "wisdom" instead if just posing it?

Stop trolling.

here is the link to the driver for win7 and vista:

handheld.softpedia.com/progDownload/HTC-Hero-Drivers-Download-81097.html

here is where I found it at:

ozamora.com/2010/11/usb-tethering-htc-g2/ (the forum bot doesn't let me post a link with http:...etc. so you have to copy and paste the address yourself)

you can also search google for HTC_Driver_64.zip or HTC_Driver_32.zip

if the option to install doesn't come up automatically when you connect your G2 to your PC via USB do one of the following: hold down the windows key and hit the Pause/Break key OR click the start button (left lower corner of your screen), then find the word 'Computer' on the right of the start menu. Right click on it and click properties on the sub-menu that pups up. If you did it right you should be at "Control Panel\All Control Panel Items\System". In the left upper corner click on Device Manager. Find the device with the yellow triangle, it should say something like unknown Android device. Double click it and then click update driver. On the GIU that comes up do not select automatic, select browse my computer for driver software. Click browse and navigate to the folder where you saved and unzipped the HTC driver like "C:\Users\username.computername\Downloads\G2_HTC\HTC Driver". Be sure to check the option include subfolders. Click next, follow propts and you are done. You want to be smart about this for future use copy the uzipped driver folder to the SD card of your phone.

BTW Android1126 is a scamer, do not contact the f*&#er.
[G2 and Desire Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Android1126:
You may very well be retarded. You clowns sound like the guys from the HTC forum pertaining to this. Learn how to read. I've helped more people than I could even count with this particular problem, and what's a scamer? You really shouldn't be playing with your cell phone. Actually no, keep it up. HAHA.

"Wisdom", I'm not about to walk a million noob's (no offense, i am one too) through something so easy that they have made difficult for themselves. I'm not on the level of many of the guys on this site to be walking anyone through anything on a forum, though if I had to do it, I'd prefer an audience who would understand my direction. Both of you palsy stricken idiots definitely do not fall into that category, which is probably why you didn't receive my help previously. You can't post a definitive solution to a problem that could arise from a number of different scenarios, and even if you could, I never claimed to be up for it.

Hope you've both learned how to use Windows and your phones.
[G2 and Desire Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] tronmech:
Guys.... The purpose of this thread is to help people, not alienate them.

Anyway, HTC sync may not be the *best* way to get the drivers on the phone, but it's certainly one of the easiest to explain. All that matters is getting the ndis drivers somewhere windoze will find them.

I said before in this thread that I got better performance using wifi tethering, but that's probably because the usb on my laptop has an attitude problem (adb issues even on a fresh windows install). Best part of that option is that the driver issue is avoided.
[G2 and Desire Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] TheWizKid95:
im coming from the incredible forums, im running Cyanogenmod 7 RC4, and im pretty sure its the same type of USB/Wifi tethering mechanism. ive searched everywhere, but i cant find the RNDIS drivers anywhere. if you seriously know how to hook up our devices to windows 7 (preferably 64bit lol) without using outside programs like pdanet, please post it here. thank you! :D
[G2 and Desire Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Android1126:
(worked for me on Windows 7 32 bit, hope it helps you)

Dude, go to your device manager.

Find the Device with the little ? and then maybe a yellow !.

Right click that device and select Update Driver.

When the window pops up (on Windows 7 32bit), select, Browse My Computer for driver software, then on the next screen, click on the bottom that says, LET ME PICK.

Then it will ask you the device type.

Here you go down to Network Adapters.

Then when it asks you to select manufacturer, skip Microsoft and select Microsoft Corporation.

Then, select Remote NDIS based Internet Sharing Device.

Hit next, it will say it's not safe, etc etc, proceed to install it.

You should be set. I hope that helps.
[G2 and Desire Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Android1126:
P.S. btw you may have to remove other drivers you tried to install first. Good luck, let me know if it helped.
[G2 and Desire Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] adamhlj:
I had to do that twice, but I got it to work. Thanks, man.
[G2 and Desire Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] adamhlj:
actually, I had to do it a slightly different way with 64-bit. You have to select troubleshoot then find the android device that has the exclamation point, select it, then click properties and then update driver just like you said. At least, I think that is how i did it from memory.
[G2 and Desire Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] TheWizKid95:
Thank! I finally got home and tried it out, worked wonderfully!
[G2 and Desire Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] noodles2224:
All you need is that htc sync to make things easier.. when I got my phone on the 5th of oct, I had windows xp and installed drivers one by one or somewhat like that ( the long way ) then I got a laptop with windows 7 and all over the forums was, "install htc sync" simple as that.. then you can just uninstalled sync after..

Also, there's really no need for usb tether since there's hotspot.. enable hotspot and plug the usb in just to make you feel better.. :) there really isn't any speed different, is there? Not that I know about..
[G2 and Desire Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Android1126:
I'm glad it worked for you! Thank me if possible, I'm new to using this site!
[G2 and Desire Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Android1126:
There may be a speed difference, I'll test it later. But it's not about using workarounds. The whole point is to get every part of our OS working, and there are a few benefits in tethering as compared to making the device a mobile hotspot. Anyways, glad I could help!

I don't really know what trolling is, but anyone who knocks a known working solution for no reason seems to be trolling to me. BTW we don't want to install 3rd party SW to make things work. You could argue that it doesn't make a difference, but I for one, keep my Registry immaculate. Installing SW creates directory structure, which can have undesired consequences (at times).
[G2 and Desire Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] robazefa:
looking too many forms and some people are having similar issues.

what I have: samsung galaxy s 2 and windows xp sp2

I downloaded the android tethering configuration tool (tetherxp.inf) + the hotfix windowsxp hb959765-x86-ENU

I installed the hotfix without in issue

ily problem is quitting stalling the tethering configuration tool as there are no clear directions and using the windows at hardware wizard with the s2 connected does not allow installation of the inf file.

how do i install the inf file exactly?

This worked perfectly on a Nexus 4 running Android KitKat tethered to Windows 8 over USB2.0

The connection is much faster than hotspot or bluetooth tethering.

Zero additional battery drain.

I've been trying all day to get my Huawei Ascend android phone to use Cricket's WAP proxy for apps like android marketplace, but it never seems to work. I still get some error stating that Data Connection is not working or has timed-out. All that works is the Browser and Cricket's built-in apps, though they worked before I was using the autostart.sh file anyways.

I tried different variations on the code and none of them seem to work.

This is the current code I have for my auotstart.sh file.

[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] xlarkascendingx:
ummm, why are you doing it that way? If you have the Android plan, all you need to do is set-up the APN if it's not working.
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] funnyboy243:
I'm not on the Android plan, so I need to use autostart.sh to get apps to work with cricket's WAP Proxy.
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] xlarkascendingx:
That sucks, why don't you just get the android plan haha.
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] funnyboy243:
Because I don't have $55 a month. DO you wanna give me $55/month?
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] BIGWORM:
Just suck it up, pay the extra $10, or continue to have problems. Your choice.
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] xlarkascendingx:
Well you obviously have 45 dollars a month, otherwise you wouldn't have internet period. It's really not that big of a difference in price. Plus, you paid for the phone lol.
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] funnyboy243:
How about giving a real answer to my question or not posting in this thread at all.

[Android Software Development] johnny quest:
Ok, first sorry for posting this question, and I did search and found that the information is some what broken up and it confused me. Sorry I'm not a developer so the lingo is way far advanced.

But this is what I've gathered and done.

-I took an app that I wanted to edit. I got the images and did my PS CS4 editing to my liking and saved them.

-I did the draw9patch and manage to save them in a folder and then I put the correct names on the pngs with the 9 still at the end of the file name.

-I got lost with step no.6 of one of the threads talks about "eclipse" and thats where I'm lost.

I don't know what the heck its talking about workspace. I don't know what to do from here. Can somebody please explain it to me in laymans term. thank you.
[Android Software Development] evilkorn:
You need to load up the sdk, eclipse is part of that.

[Motorola Droid and Milestone General] blyn100:
Hi Everyone,

I have a (Milestone) problem and would love input from anyone who can help.

This is an interesting situation, so feel free to skip the quote section if you'd like to avoid the, albeit quite summarized, background information.

The device gets stuck on the Motorola M splash screen. Every once in a while (~3 minutes?) it goes blank and comes back.

A summary of the state:

Recovery mode will not boot. I've tried X and Camera Button

Bootloader boots. It reads 90.78.

.SBFs can be flashed. It seems like everything is working okay.

Fastboot mode can boot. My PC can detect the device but seems unable to write/read from it

adb logcat forever sits on -waiting for device-

I've tried flashing a number of .sbfs. I've redone the bootloader a few times, tried a number of roms. But now i'm out of ideas.

I'm open to suggestions and really hoping someone can help me figure out a way to restore this. Thanks !
[Motorola Droid and Milestone General] blyn100:

[Motorola Droid and Milestone General] Melkor76:
Hi, I did just got into a similar situation:

- Recovery mode will not boot. "I've tried X and Camera Button" (Same like you)

- Bootloader boots. It reads 90.78. (I tried several BL 90.73, 90.74 and 90.78)

- Several .SBFs can be flashed. It seems like everything is working okay.

Did you get any solution or just discard that phone?
[Captivate General] MantaZumanity:
Everytime I do DM, it says "Connection Failed", and when I click on it it says "No Firmware". Is it because I'm rooted?

[Focus General] lavike:
I was wondering if anyone has done a test of a Focus with and without a memory card installed for speed. There are Youtube videos showing that the Focus will boot into games faster than the HD7. The thought seems to be that the HD7 is using SD cards and the Focus is using NAND memory.

If you install an SD card in the Focus does it slow down because it is now also using SD memory and that is now the bottleneck?
[Focus General] Seed 2.0:
When I installed a class 6 16GB MicroSDHC, I did hard reset via the att website instructions, not the quick guide ones. It showed around 22.?GB of space. I got errors when trying to use Netflix, YouTube, and few other apps. When I powered off and back on my memory was wiped, and it showed around 15GB space. I din't have time to notice speed. As far as browsing the phone it didn't seem different with or with out memory.
[Focus General] rexian:
If WP7 truly stripes the data between NAND and micro-SD, it should be faster with the card as long as the SD card is not twice as slow as NAND memory (assuming you use an 8GB card). Would like to hear the real life results though.
[Desire HD General] foxilliams:
Hi all,

Automatic correction of exposure is slow and in stages.

example if you record a video of the sky and ground, we see that AutoCorrect is slow.

Do you think this is software? or hardware?

Thank you
[Desire HD General] Evostance:
It's annoying and let's the camera down. I've also noticed pixels are block.

It'll be software based due to compression and refresh rates
[Desire HD General] mupet0000:
I keep getting blurred pictures, it looks fine on the screen, then it focuses in, still looks good and just as it takes the photo it does something weird and the picture comes out blurry. I hate this! It looks really amazing and then just before it takes the picture it blurs it!

Anyone else have this problem?
[Desire HD General] YumYumHD:
Yes, I experience the same problem sometimes, but it's with a cause.

This is probably because you don't hold the camera still enough when you shoot the picture. It is absolutely critical to keep it super steady, because the shutter speed isn't incredibly fast, hence more exposure, and thus more susceptible to motion blur.
[Desire HD General] foxilliams:
Do you think it's the lens or the software?
[Desire HD General] Rixsta:
Maybe both haha..

I found that lowering the ISO to 100 made the pictures look much better..

It still needs sorting though, the light to dark exposure sensor is plain dumb.
[Desire HD General] YumYumHD:
It's either the camera module itself, or the software, or both.

I am using the root ext2 version of apps2sd. While there is still a lot of space on my ext2, I'm also losing space on my internal memory.

I'm guessing these are certain apps. Why aren't these placed on my ext2? And is there a way to find out which apps these are and place them on the ext2 manually?
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] evilkorn:
It's application data that is on the internal memory. a2sd only moves the apk, not the data.
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] teorouge:
Any chance we can move the data as well?
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] evilkorn:
Sure, try symlink-ing the data to the sdcard, worst case is it won't work. There are reasons it doesn't do this already, probably slower access time and the application data doesn't use much space so it's unnecessary.
