Is it for always have a root acces ? (Android logged)
[Desire HD Android Development] than33:
It is for hiding ads.

How to set permissions executable?
[Desire HD Android Development] than33:
In Root Explorer hold your finger on file and choose option 'permissions'.

Probably You can try skip this step.
[Desire HD Android Development] Café King:
When I do that I don't get "permissions"... Trying to restart now without it...

E D I T: Just rebooted and ads are now gone in some apps :) Will see what will happen in one hour :)

ANOTHER EDIT: Thank you for this. Hope you can fix the one hour problem. Still need to wait for an hour to be over before I can check it.

Do you recommend we uninstall adfree app when using this?

Uninstalled but still not blocking ads in apps for me, e.g. in alchemy
[Desire HD Android Development] Café King:
The ads came back a few mins later... So guess you didn't quite break the code yet :(

[Desire HD Android Development] noobdeagle:
Does this method not work with the temp root?

1. Search for Adfree Android on the market

2. Install and run

3. allow it to download and install new hosts file, it will copy it to your sdcard and try to replace /system/etc/hosts but fail (it should reboot the phone shortly)

4. Power off the phone and hold Volume Down and power.

5. Use volume down to select recovery

6. In clockwork recovery volume down to "partitions menu" and hit the track pad to select

7. Select "mount /system" and "mount /sdcard" "mount /data"

8. Plug in your usb cord and open a command line on your pc

9. enter adb shell and type the following commands

cp /sdcard/hosts /data/data/hosts

rm /system/etc/hosts

ln -s /data/data/hosts /system/etc/hosts

10. Reboot your phone and enjoy adfree android.

this is what i used on my legend was hoping it would be as easy, :\
[Desire HD Android Development] KiLL3Rzor:
I think it might be better to use 0.0.0.0 instead of 127.0.0.1

With 127.0.0.1 it will attempt to connect to itself and wait until it times out, but with 0.0.0.0 is will stop straight away since it's an invalid address.
[Desire HD Android Development] arielext:
on the DHD we don't have a custom recovery nor write access to /system atm so this won't work

Strangely enough my Ad-Free works fine without the need of this.

[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps] Blairware:
I am hoping that someone might take a look at extracting the new Amazon MP3 Application from the new T-Mobile Official 3.14.531.1 ROM? The old AmazonMP3.cab thats been around forever never worked: meaning it searched, but would not authenticate an Amazon Account, so you couldn't "buy" songs with it, making it essentially useless.

Edit: Nevermind - I extracted the package myself (posted in another thread) and got it working. Surprised there wasn't a lot more interest in this app. Personally, I love it.
[G2 and Desire Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] SuperDave81:

[G2 and Desire Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] minotauri:
doubt you'll be able to do the customizations but you can use the stop and start commands in adb shell.
[G2 and Desire Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] SuperDave81:
Tried it, nothing worked after issuing the stop command in adb shell. Had to battery pull.
[G2 and Desire Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] minotauri:
adb shell

$ su

# stop

# mount -o remount,rw /dev/block/mmcblk0p25 /system

# mv /system/app/settings.apk /system/app/settings.bak

# cp /sdcard/settings.apk /system/app

# start

assuming you've put the new settings.apk in your /sdcard folder.
[G2 and Desire Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] SuperDave81:
That worked, it did push the new settings.apk. It even changed the icon when I click menu from the home screen. But when I click on settings, nothing happened :(. Oh well, Enomthr updated his rom so I'm happy again!
[G2 and Desire Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] amack10:
I'm not positive but I'm pretty sure the cyan settings are involved with the custom framework on cyan roms. Because the xml in order to edit things such as clock color are located in the framework-res.apk. if some of you guys are new to android or have never reallly messed areoud with apks or ne thing here's something fun to try while waiting for root. Take the framework res apk from a rom and put it on ur computer and rename it to .zip instead of .apk. and you can see you things work visually wise on your phone. This will help you a ton if you ever want to get into themeing to make custom themes when we have root.
[G2 and Desire Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] fionachen:
I have actually the same question. Does it work if a push a Setting.apk into my ROM, or there are something related in framework?:confused:
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] denno020:
THIS PROBLEM HAS NOW BEEN FIXED, GO TO POST #19 FOR STEPS I TOOK TO FIX THE PROBLEM - thanks alot to the help below.

I recently installed or flashed (whatever the term is), a rom/theme thing to my phone. Now it hasn't worked out how I liked, and I want to go back to stock, but when I restart the phone and go to wipe date/factory reset, it just restores to the ROM's startup..

How can I go back to the stock 2.1 installation on my phone, so I can try the official update to Froyo, and not these ROMs.

However, is there a benefit to using any of the ROMs that have been posted on this site? Aside from the themes of course..

Thanks

Denno
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] Adevem:
aside from the themes, the cook normally remove bloatware from samsung and all that. to speed things up and free some space. with custom kernels, themes (like you said) and all that good stuff.

to go back to a stock rom, you simply flash your stock rom.

if your stock rom's a dxjg4, you flash dxjg4 and so on.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] denno020:
Thanks Adevem.

How do I go about getting my stock rom? I have no idea what my stock rom actually was though :S. I've heard lots of talk of flashing so many different roms and to be honest, it's quite overwhelming to try and work it out..

I am also keen on getting back my Optus app that was on the phone, which told me how much of my cap I have used etc.. Will this be possible? Without contacting Optus themselves, as I'm not sure if what I did with the phone is allowed within the contract.. The Optus app isn't in the Market either..

I did backup all of my apps and stuff using Titanium Backup before I installed the ROM, but I can't Restore the Optus ones :S. I can restore other ones though... It could be because they're not made to run on Android 2.2 yet, but if not, then I don't know..
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] Adevem:
once you've flashed your phone you've voided your contract ;p sorry to say.

since you're Optus... you're gonna have to ask around what was the stock rom for Optus, cause i have no idea.

once you've found out, head over to http://www.samfirmware.com/WEBPROTECT-i9000.htm, download your rom and flash back to stock. the optus applications should be installed properly back on the rom. if it doesn't, send me a pm and i might have a work around with a detailed guide.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] denno020:
Thanks heaps!! I know 3 other people who have the same phone with Optus (I talked it up quite a bit when I got it lol)

How do I get them to check the ROM though? Do I go to Settings > About Phone?

And what do I look for in there? I see Firmware Version, Baseband Version, Kernel Version, Build Number.

Which is the one I want from them?

Thanks heaps.

Cool, post back again when you get everything worked nicely, someone else like you with this problem might ask in the near future :) Enjoy!
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] denno020:
Ok so I've got the digits from my mate, but I can only find the PDA one on samefirmware. I can't find the PHONE or CSC one.

Here are my numbers:

PDA: I9000DTJG4

PHONE: I9000DTJG3

CSC: I9000OPSJG1

Is it just the PDA that I need to get? Or do I need the other two aswell?

Thanks..
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] Adevem:
you mean the site only provide the pda file? just flash it anyway, put the tar file as pda. some firmwares are packed all in one.

do report back if it matches!
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] denno020:
Ohk cool..

Well some what cool... I have no idea how to flash it lol. It says on samfirmware to follow their guide 100%, but I can't find their guide?

I feel like such a douche.. I'm studying software engineering and I can't work this out, but I've never seen this stuff before... :S

Sorry for the newb questions..
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] JJ*:
Wait... this might be a stupid question, but if you don't know how to flash a ROM, how did you get the new ROM on your phone in the first place?
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] denno020:
Well I followed the directions in the Darksys forum post. All that involved was putting a file on the root of my internal card, and then restarting the phone into the recovery mode.. That wasn't so hard..

Is it the exact same thing? I keep hearing so many different things, like using Odin, or playing with Kies and the registry..

I'm just confused as to what the heck I'm supposed to do.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] denno020:
Could someone please just point me toward a place that will guide me through the flashing?

I don't wanna stuff my phone up anymore than it already is..
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] dcarr622:
You need to use Odin. If you look at the bottom of the samfirmware page (very bottom) you'll see PDF guides in a couple languages.

It's pretty easy, put phone in download mode (volume down + center button + power), plug in, open Odin, click PDA and select your .tar file. If you want to repartition, select the PIT indicated on samfirmware and check repartition. And click Start.

Phone will then flash the ROM and reboot, pretty simple =P
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] st4rk:
http://nfye.com/toolkit/Doc-Froyo.pdf

there are some instructions here.. they are not exactly your firmware that you want to flash but it will give you an idea..

on samfirmware where you downloaded the rom it should say if it need a 512 or a 803 pit file

Check that before you do anything ;-)
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] denno020:
Argh, they're so obvious down there aren't they lol. I was looking in the menu at the top for a 'tutorial' option or something similar.

Thanks for the quick tip though, I shall hopefully be able to run with it now :).

I'll try and document the whole thing and then show everyone what I've done (providing it works for me, otherwise Ima be very p'd off lol)
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] denno020:
Yeeeeeeah!! :D :D :D soo happy. Thanks guys, this worked perfectly! I've got the MyAccount for Optus app back in that ROM too!

It was so easy wasn't it! wow lol.

Anyways, I didn't really document it, as there isn't anything I did any different to the instructions here, but to reiterate, this is what I did:

My phone was already rooted, so I used a program - Android Commander - on my PC, to copy EVERYTHING from my phone to my computer (back-up). This can only be done if your phone is rooted though.

Then I downloaded the following firmware from samfirmware: NB. I culd only find the PDA, but as it turns out, this was all I needed (in my case, with this firmware)

I have a Galaxy S I9000 with Optus in Australia, so my digits were:

PDA: I9000DTJG4

PHONE: I9000DTJG3

CSC: I9000OPSJG1

Next I downloaded Odin from samfirmware.com, and also downloaded the tutorial from the very bottom of the Firmwares page

I then had everything downloaded, so I opened the tutorial and followed that exactly

You need to also make sure you backup your contacts, as they will all be lost. I was lucky that I did the copy of the whole contents of my phone, as I hadn't properly synced my contacts with my google account, but I have remedied this now :).

I'm now back with my stock Eclair firmware, complete with Optus MyAccount app, and I couldn't be happier :).

Now to find a proper upgrade to Froyo :).

Thanks for the help guys, very much appreciated.

[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] Adevem:
there's actually a video on youtube on how to flash. damn it, I should have linked it to you. helped me on the first time I got an android.

anyway, glad you got it all figured out!
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] denno020:
haha thanks anyway.

Actually to finish, I would like to ask this one last question. Now that I have this ROM, and I know how to flash it back onto my phone, does this mean I'm safe to put any other sort of ROM that I want onto my phone, as I know that I can always fall back to this one? Or should I still be very careful? (I really don't want to brick my phone lol).

Denno
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] Adevem:
in theory you are now eligible to flash any rom.

that said, of course you should be careful and read feedback about the rom changing product codes, imei and all that.

welcome to xda, officially!

For those who haven't attempted yet, you can install screen share.apk from the MT4G. i have it running and reading my files, connected to wifi. i know its really ment to show on TVs and such, but i dont have a DNLA enable device like that. Has any1 had success using it to share to a DNLA tv?

does any1 know if laptops are capable of being media receivers as oppose to media servers? in other words, use a laptop to view media? i've got a macbook and i'd think its be good, for me in this point in time, to share onto my mac because i practically live off this thing. netflix is awesome and i cant wait til that hits android!

[G2 and Desire Z Themes and Apps] havikx:
i can confirm that it works on tmobile g2. though...not as it should. maybe it was my end.

basically tried to stream to ps3. ps3 read the twonky server. unfortunately the phone didnt read the ps3 so the beam option was not working. but, fortunately, the ps3 was able to download the file from the g2 over wifi and play it anyways.

any1 else try to steam anything? i would love to figure out how to set a laptop as a media receiver instead of a mead server (location the media comes from)
[Vibrant General] problem0atique:
Hey guys i know "Help!" threads get annoying (at least in the Fascinate forum they do.) but i could really use some help.

Rooted my friends phone today (root,clockwork,rom manager), and was going to install regular JAC kernal /voodoo w/o color fix.. I made sure the phone had the smaller NAND chip. Installation went fine (phone booted, voice told me it was switching to ext. 4.) and the voice said voodoo was complete. The phone was stuck at the S logo for about an hour and it was then i decided voodoo was botched. From there i rebooted to clockwork and went to restore the nandroid i made when i rooted. The nandroid got stock at one of the Data files for about 30 minutes. (i have a feeling this is around where i messed things up myself) Decided screw it and was going to flash JI6(T959UVJI6) and the stock kernal with ODIN. Now the phone boots past the S logo but the screen stays black and only the backlight menu buttons light up. It wont go past there. Any quick help is appreciated.
[Vibrant General] ShinyBuddha:
You didn't disable the lagfix I'm assuming.

Odin Eugene's Froyo that doesn't brick, then Odin JFD, install ROM of you're choosing.

Did you even try to search for a fix before posting???

~SB
[Vibrant General] jumaaneface:
If you can still boot into clockwork recov. you can save it by pushing the undo voodoo zip file that was mentioned about. Assuming that u have adb access. If not odin froyo that doesnt brick tepartition checked. Turn off. Boot back in download. Odin stock jdf. Ji6 isnt a standalone rom. Its more like a no wipe update. Lucky his vibrant wasnt hardware locked lol. He will have a 90% chance of losing EVERYTHING
[Vibrant General] problem0atique:
Had to odin flash froyo that doesnt brick then jfd and yep he lost all his data but he didnt have much to begin with. Now happily running Fusion. Thanks for the help guys!

and my cell phone if i hold it just right at just the right time in just the right temp i get 3mb. Now if i leave my house and go to the main street i get an easily 7-8mb down
