I work for a company that installs systems similar to the one probably being used in your apartment complex. Devices on our system (Nomadix) are authenticated by MAC address. Have you tried to spoof the Xbox's mac address on a computer, sign in to the web and then attempt to connect with the 360?

AFAIK you cannot both connect to an access point and broadcast a signal for another device to connect to. I know that you CAN connect to an access point and USB tether. You can also connect a laptop to the free wifi and share the connection to the xbox with a cat5 cable. :cool:
[EVO 4G General] evohack99:
download "wireless tether pre 11" and use it to play xbox live, i used myn the other night for about 5 hours and only burnt through 20 some megs, um if you dont have wifi on your xbox, use a laptop and pic up the signal with it and plug in an ethernet cable to your xbox from your laptop. that will also work, it is a bit slower than your net in your apartment, as i was only getting two to three bars the whole night.
[EVO 4G General] jerryparid:
Spoof your computer mac address to that of you 360. Activate, then connect 360
[EVO 4G General] sitlet:
Or use a laptop to connect to wifi, then a bridge ethernet cable form laptop to xbox.
[EVO 4G General] illogic6:
or you could (insert something that was already said four posts up).

Haha, that's hilarious, the service that our apartment uses is Nomadix.

Thanks for the help guys, got it all figured out
[EVO 4G General] evohack99:

[Streak 5 General] tom_tui:
Hello,

Often when I power off the device, I'd still see the image on the screen... Turn it back on and off again would make this ghost image go away. Has anyone also experienced this? Does it residual image also drain the battery power?

Tom.
[Streak 5 General] The Jack of Clubs:
i see it too. its just lcd image retention. its using no battery to do that, and its not effecting the screen in any way when its on. give it a few hours and the pixels will relax. i dunno why it does it so bad on the streak. it only does it on half my screen, weird.
[Streak 5 General] oddbert:

Hi there i also get the image after power off.my battery used to drain becouse of this.but like you said power on and of twice and that soughts it.they would have most probobly soughted this out with the new update.
[Streak 5 General] Kohawk09:
Ditto, only on the upper left quadrant. Glad to know it's not just me. Haven't seen any adverse effects of this so I haven't ever really worried...
[Streak 5 General] netonyx:
I get this too, but only on the left quarter or so of the screen as far as I can tell. Power on and off again makes it go away, but I too wondered what it was.
[Streak 5 General] aSquard:
Same thing happened to me, just on the left side (in landscape) only about 10% of the screen. I've only seen this once and it hasn't happened again. Oh well
[Vibrant Themes and Apps] s0niqu3:
Hey again everyone.

So I must have android OCD, because simple having multiple launchers installed on JK2 annoyed me, so I switched to Onyx 2.2, only to miss the wonderful full-screen widget mods by Signals23 here:

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=783427

So, for the time being, I modified the Onyx 2.2 Launcherpro.apk to have the signals23 XTG fullscreen widgets.

All credit for making LauncherPro replace touchwiz belongs to teamwhiskey and all credit for the wonderful LP mod belongs to Signals23

All I've done is port the signals23 widget mods to the onyx version of LauncherPro.

This MUST be pushed to /system/app to overwrite the existing Launcherpro.apk (I recommend either making a nandroid backup, or renaming the original to Launcherpro.bak in case you run into problems.)

And my standard disclaimer:

I am absolutely not responsible for anything that happens from your use of this mod, you have to make a rational choice to mod your $500 phone in the first place, so take some responsibility and learn how to use adb, nandroid, ODIN etc., so you can fix your own problems instead of just whining to the forum.

Anyway, works great for me, hope somebody else can use this too.

Cheers everyone, =)
[Vibrant Themes and Apps] creator2456:
Thanks for this.

Here is a signed copy that can be installed like any other downloaded app. (Does NOT need to be placed in /system/app)

Only use if you DON'T have LauncherPro installed or have UNINSTALLED from /system/app through Root Explorer (or other method) first!!!
[Vibrant Themes and Apps] ibuddha:
would this work on obsidian v3?
[Vibrant Themes and Apps] s0niqu3:
Hi,

I don't see any reason it shouldn't work, essentially by using it on Obsidian and removing the touchwiz launcher, you kind of make obsidian Onyx anyway, lol.

Cheers, =)
[Focus General] ricky119:
I'm wondering whether there's a way to test the internal NAND speed, then we can compare and balance whether to use extend SD card.

I have a Sandisk Class4 !6G microsd which has 19M/16M read and write, but if the NAND still much faster than this card, im considering to use internal storage only(less mp3 and game instead), its hard to balance.
[Focus General] rvonder:
Sorry to re-awaken an old thread, but since you've had no reply: I had the same question, and found an app in the Market called "Android Hacker's System Tool" that includes a storage speed test (among many other things).

On my Motorola Droid1 running MIUI (not o/c'ed currently), I was shocked to see NAND speeds of only 1.9 MB/s read and 0.21 MB/s write. The OEM 16gb SD card showed a bit over 2 MB/s for both read and write... at least symmetrical, but still very slow. No wonder apps on the SD card seem just as quick as those in NAND!

Any thoughts as to why IO is this poor overall, and why NAND write in particular is so pathetic? The phone feels very smooth right now.
[Focus General] foxbat121:
Why do you post questions about your Droid in a Windows Phone forum? Samsung Focus is Windows Phone 7. There is nothing in common with your Droid.
[Focus General] HoHoHoHo:
rvonder, interest numbers, thanks for the post. I'm a little surprised at the low numbers as well. Especially the writes. Hopefully we will have a test app for WP7 soon.
[Focus General] HemanC:
Just going by deduction from here. If the phone feels snappy even with those numbers, isn't it safe to assume it doesn't matter :confused:?
[Focus General] thegarmac:
rather than waste anybody's time, please read the question first next time, it has nothing to do specificaly with android but rather about the use of external memory card considering the Focus uses built-in NAND memory that might be much faster than the external memory (or not). Since Windows 7 phone "merges" both memory, it would most likely be at the speed of the slowes of both...
[Focus General] foxbat121:
Did you read his question? He was asking why his Droid phone SD card IO is so slow. First of all the Android app in question does something really stupid. Last time I checked, it gives out really low IO score on my Captivate as well. So, I'd say it is the app that's not really designed well, or could be Android OS doesn't offer a good API for testing the SD performance. None of these are related to how WP7 works. As you mentioned above, WP7 treats memory differently and no one knows exactly how SD performance affects entire system (we knew that most 'faster' SD cards don't work). And we don't have any app to test native IO speeds of the combined memory. So, this is really comparing apples to oranges.

[Galaxy Tab General] virgillio:
I am wondering if anyone is experiencing this issue with their TAB. Some shortcuts are disappearing from my home screen. It just seems so odd. Google Sky, Opera Mobile and Google Goggles. Just a bit frustrating.
[Galaxy Tab General] umbra6:
Those programs are installed on the SD card. Since your SD card gets mounted after the system boots those shortcuts wont appear since the system doesn't see the apps till the card is mounted. You can fix this by going to Settings -> Applications, find the apps that keep disappearing, and click on Move to Device.

Hope that helps...

I don't believe there is any topic like this for the G2. Just wondering if there is any psfreedom app for the vision yet. I know it just got rooted like two days ago, but just wondering if there is a psfreedom out for another android phone that works with the G2

[G2 and Desire Z General] xile6:
Just buy a p3go there $28
[G2 and Desire Z General] fastludeh22:
imo the best way to do the psfreedom is in recovery. that way you dont have wifi issues and other little things ive heard about. i kow there are recoveries based on amon_ra's recovery for the g1 that have this included. im sure someone can do it to cwm or base off of amon_ra's for us.
[G2 and Desire Z General] thundertroy:
Well I checked the site and the G2 ain't on it so was wondering if there is anyway.. and to the $28 I know they sell em but id rather just have it on my phone so I can take it easier. Since I take my phone everywhere I wouldn't have to worry about leavin it behind =p.

Get a usb donge and put it on ur keys. But idk thats just me I always have my phone, wallet ,keys and 4gb jumpjump on me at all times.

Also u know u can not use ur phone while ur playing a game right?
[G2 and Desire Z General] Flippy125:
Well... actually, you can unplug it right after it's jailbroken until the next reboot.
[G2 and Desire Z General] xile6:
Um u tryed it? Because I heard that all jailbreaks must stay pluged up as long as the system is on or while playing a game
[G2 and Desire Z General] Stryder5:
You only need to plug in the phone/usb dongle to boot up the system. Once it has started up, you can unplug. Yes, I have tried it. I've been doing this since the port came over to the G1 a good while ago. I would like to know where you heard this from.

[G2 and Desire Z General] thenotoriouspie:
The firmware version doesn't matter that much anymore I think because now you can downgrade your ps3 firmware
[G2 and Desire Z General] Stryder5:
Only if you buy the PS Downgrader. It currently isn't available for free *yet*. To be safe, find one on 3.41 firmware or earlier.
[G2 and Desire Z General] thundertroy:
Yea, it sucks that you gotta pay like $100 to downgrade it. :(

I really hope it comes out for the G2, it would be much appericated!

What it does though is that it allows you to play emulators, and like burnt/downloaded games from your PS3. It's really nice feature, but the 3.50 does not work for jailbreak cuz Sony patched the HELL Out oF IT! :(
[G2 and Desire Z General] illusive817:
just ordered a P3Go , dont know when they might get this figured out ... got tired of waiting

but hopefully one day they will get this working for everyone else
[G2 and Desire Z General] thundertroy:
yea... i just got my own ps3 from CL, but it was updated to 3.50.. :( hopefully the free downgrade will come out sometime soon! I really don't wanna pay $100, I don't mind to give some donations, but a total of $100.... that's a little much! :(

I'm not really up to date on the payloads though. Can someone give me a break down and tell me what's most current and working best. Last one I downloaded for g1 was hermes4b but never even got to try it yet...

here's the link, I'm not sure which is the most recent though. :(.

Maybe the Desire looks the newest? :(
[G2 and Desire Z General] shabbypenguin:
ok let me give you guys some advice, as i am getting a g2 here shortly and i would enjoy being able to jailbreak my ps3 with it. you need a modified kernel and the correct chipset which is why the snapdragon lineup has had great success and so many phones have psfreeedom.

now they dont use hex files or w/e you need the source code for psfreedom and how to merge it into your phones kernel. which is why PSFmod is based in recovery because at least losing adb/etc isnt as bad. you can compile the psfmod recovery (if you know what your doing) to your device but the issue remains of its going to send signals to simulate a usb hub and it may or may not be sending the wrong one. after that bit is worked out then all you need to do is use one of the bin's..

so as you can see your best shot is to talk to the author of psfmod and hope he makes a port :D

P.S.

the master key has been dumped, there is one jailbreak that already has the downgrade reworked so what version your on matters for now but soon enough will be a moot point
[G2 and Desire Z General] psylink:

[G2 and Desire Z General] renn9420:
@ killer1one1

Go to klutsch.com/downloads and get the .img for the G2 and flash it like you would a recovery. And at the same site download the payload 3.41 and put it on the root of your sdcard. Once you flashed the .img and dl the payload boot into recovery and you should see the option for psfreedom and then apply payload from sdcard. Point it to the payload you downloaded and follow instructions.

ok thanks for the reply. My G2 is rooted and all, but i forgot how to flash .img's. In other words, how do I install the psfmod?
[G2 and Desire Z General] renn9420:
@ killer1one1

Download the .img for the Vision. Put it on the root of your sdcard. Go to terminal emulator and type:

$su

#flash_image recovery /sdcard/whatever file name.img

#reboot recovery

Example I rename the file after I downloaded to psfServiceMod.img so I would type after su:

# flash_image recovery /sdcard/psfServiceMod.img

Don't forget to download the payload and put it somewhere you can find it. It should download as a .bin file. Mine is in a file called PSFreedom on my root sdcard. Make it easy to find. Once in recovery you should see the last option being psfreedom and if you go to it and press track pad there will be an option to apply payload from sdcard. There is where you will browse for the payload you downloaded.

service mode is whats required to downgrade, all you need then is the proper bin and downgrader files
[G2 and Desire Z General] Shambala001:
Unless I read wrong the new img file for the g2 supports service mode, and by bin do you mean the 3.41 with psn bin?
[G2 and Desire Z General] shabbypenguin:
sorry i should have explained, from what i can gather yes it will put it into service mode but from my understanding service mode wont run homebrew and such, you you are still going to need the payload (hermes/pl3/etc) to boot back into jailbreak mode afterwards..

in order to downgrade you need this recovery, in service mode and the pup and self files
[G2 and Desire Z General] ferrari2992:
so how exactly do you put the ps3 in service mode? im on 3.50 so is it possible with the new .img?.....i flashed it and did everything it told me to do but i doesn't seem to work...

as i am on 3.41 i never looked into it, but be warned there is a few files out there that may not be safe to flash.. ill check in a few places and see if i cant come up with some good ones

http://www.ps3-hacks.com/file/215

make sure your on 3.50 and not 3.55

load up in service mode (start up just like a jailbreak but then shut it down in the menu, turn it back on regularly)

Load any blank FAT32 USB flash drive with 2 files in the root directory:

Modified 3.41 PUP

Lv2Diag.self (File 1)

insert the usb into the far right port (towards the bluray drive)

your ps3 should auto start the downgrade after a while it will shut off

delete those files off teh usb and load that last .self file on it

turn your ps3 on and stick it in and your good :D

[G2 and Desire Z General] shabbypenguin:
flash psfmod, load the payload (he has one on his site for use), yes you have to jailbreak every reboot
[G2 and Desire Z General] CB620:
will i have to jailbreak everytime with p3go as well? can you provide a step by step on the psfmod
[G2 and Desire Z General] renn9420:
@ charlieb620

Once you flash the psmod to your phone and your PS3 is on firmware 3.41 then you can boot into recovery and use the psfreedom option to jailbreak your ps3. Once the ps3 is on and the jailbreak is successful you can unplug your phone and boot into Android. You just need to use your phone everytime you turn on your ps3. As for downgrading, shabby penguin has put up a link to download the 3 necessary file you will need to downgrade just follow instructions as if you were using the E3 card.

Download the psmod for your phone along with the 3.41_psn payload. Put the psfmod .img on the root of your sdcard. Unrar or unzip the payload so it it is only a .bin file. That's if it downloaded in a zip or rar file. And put it on the root of your sdcard as well. Then flash the psfmod.img file or whatever it is called but the .img file as if you were flashing a recovery. If you go a page or two back I explained how to do it to another person. But please feel free to post any questions if you are iffy about it.

And Shambala001 also posted a link on how to downgrade with the files that Shabbypenguin posted a link to.
