Make sure you have Busybox installed. I thought I did when I got the same response, but after reinstalling Busybox, did not get this message any more.

Did get the message that the file would not work however.
[myTouch 4G Themes and Apps] esincho:
reinstalled Busybox and still no go. I get the same error
[myTouch 4G Themes and Apps] shineproductions:
it works for me... but the effects are a little too much for my personal taste... are there are other transition themes out there that are a little slicker, more subtle... and not so hyper?
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] tomasitoc:
Hello,

I have been reading thru the XDA forums. I am starting the understand some of it.

I am now interested in doing Kernel only installation.

Question 1:

Can I install only a kernel?

For security, I plan to back up the current ROM using the ROM manger.

Will ROM man ger also backup the current kernel when it backs up the current ROM?

Thanks,
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] go_l_den:
Nope, NANDROID backups with ROM Manager will backup everything except your kernel. Keep a few extra kernels on your SD card just incase you soft brick your device.
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] roguly:
yes, you can install a kernel by itself.

But, as far i as know, flashing just a kernel wont wipe your data, so theres not really a need for a ROM backup. (But do it just in case) :p

And NO, ROM manager doesnt backup your kernel. If you choose to go back to stock, you will have to flash a JFD, JI2, JI4, or JI6 kernel. And THEN, restore your backup using ROM manager.

*words in caps are keypoints, i wasnt angry :p
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] tomasitoc:
Thank you.... I need to research more on flashing.

I've never tried flashing a kernel.

I haven't tried saving a few kernels in my SD card.

I tried restoring a backup ROM, that's what I've done so far,

Oh, I also was able to root using OCLF

Hello, I was wondering where the ambient light sensor is on this little thing. i know that the proximity sensor (not what I'm looking for) is above the a on the atnt logo. Wondering if anyone knows?
[HTC Aria General] Rors:
I think its behind the speaker grille
[HTC Aria General] ioft:
I believe it is right next to the proximity sensor above the &
[HTC Aria General] ls377:
Me too. If you hold it to the light the right way, you can see something reflect in that spot.
[HTC Aria General] ioft:
I used a high powered LED flashlight to confirm (240 lumens). There is a sensor there, I just don't know what sensor it is... lol

That look cool:eek:
[Captivate General] veive:
Ok, so I've seen several threads recently about a "Nexus S" or "Nexus 2" or something of that nature...

I take it with a pinch of salt, for a few reasons.

1) The Nexus one is less than 2 years old and thus is not due for a replacement.

2) The Nexus one was indeed an awsome phone, but it did not sell well.

3) we have seen the exciting Nexus Two become the boring Giorgio Armani.

So the moral of this story is don't believe everything you see on the internet. :D
[Captivate General] daleaf:
I thought there was a different phone that was labeled the Nexus S?

It definitely looked different from the Giorgio Armani Cappy.
[Captivate General] ianwood:
I don't think Eric Schmidt reads the forums on XDA so maybe you should tell him:

http://www.engadget.com/2010/11/15/eric-schmidt-shows-off-a-nexus-s-at-the-web-2-0-summit/
[Captivate General] yungstar89:
Google's CEO just showed the Nexus S, which is essentially the Nexus 1's replacement. Everyone is pretty positive that it is Samsung produced.
[Captivate General] kegobeer:
Now that was a good reply. You made me laugh out loud on that one! :D
[Captivate General] ScottyNuttz:
OP I get what you are saying, but you picked a terrible example. The Giorgio Armani phone is just a rebranded captivate, while the Nexus S is a "unannounced phone" which has leaked all over the place. Now, the Galaxy 2 is a real rumor mill phone.
[Captivate General] jp712:
...nevermind yall already covered it...
[Captivate General] ozy944:
@ point 2) I doubt google really intended to sell millions of the phone, it would be stupid as all the other big names, Moto, Sammy, HTC proper would leave android as google would have an advantage.

The Nexus One was used to encourage other manufacturers to use:

- Faster processors (Snapdragon, Hummingbird, OMAP ...tick)

- Better Screens (AMOLED, SAMOLED, SLCD, WVGA ... tick)

- better design and optimisation (hmm....tick)

- Faster updates to the latest OS version (now thats the one I think didnt really come through)

Case in point, simply look at the phones preceding N1 (Hero, G1, mytouch ....pretty average phones...no offence) and post N1 (Droid X, Droid Inc, Desire, SGS)

I think thats a quite convincing success.

Oh and also to try and convince the US customer to buy outright...that didnt work either as Nokia can relate to.

Overall, the Nexus One was a success and didnt cannibalize android phone variety .... I'm no Google fanboy but it ****s me to tears when people use the N1 to say android sucks or the N1 failed ...... end rant.

The Nexus S was being touted by Eric Schmidt recently os yeah it exists....though I really dont see yet what google are trying to push harware manufacturers towards....I imagine its more a combination of hardware to run specific software e.g. credit card functionality, some sort of front camera related software etc
[Captivate General] life2monkeys:
I actually watched the video of Eric Schmidt with the nexus s, when the interviewer mentioned that Schmidt said there would be no nexus 2, he responded by saying "yes, I said there would be no nexus TWO" (heavy emphasis on the word two) so yes, between this and how much this phone has been leaked, we can pretty much confirm it. Let's just hope it has at&t 3g like the vibrant
[Captivate General] Asori:
Nexus S gets announced. Google CEO is using a phone that looks EXACTLY like the pre-renders of the Nexus S and then shows off the phone.

Coincidence? I think not. :)
[G2 and Desire Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] nehctuk:
the title says it all really but i do not know why or how to fix this any help would be great:confused:
[G2 and Desire Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] trazipomoc:
After you get s-off you can reboot and use visionary to do a temp root which will stick now since you have s-off. If you are getting errors from visionary search for r13 version which bypasses already rooted warning.
[Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] cwowtbang:
I understand that with the NOV OTA, you are unable to root your device with Unrevoked... Unless you are S-off. And S-off doesn't pertain to this thread. Can someone confirm that the Unrevoked team are working on updating it? I've heard the "just wait until they release it". But I would like to put my mind at ease... and others that are... stuck. We haven't heard a peep out of the team since the OTA dropped.
[Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] JaydenR:
You would probably be better off hitting them up on IRC or Twitter.
[Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] cwowtbang:
Twitter to no-avail. One would assume they know about the issue. Instead of leaving such a large base in the dark, it would be appropriate they they would shed some light on the situation.
[Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] RMarkwald:
I'm sure they know...but I am basing this off of nothing. They had the same issues when 2.2 came out, so they'll get something going. Don't worry, pestering them more about it won't make it come any quicker.

When they are ready, they will say something, just because they haven't doesn't mean that they don't know about it. Patience.

[Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] remy2501:
the reason being is they might be to busy with trying to fix this.. or just might be to busy.. try and have patience..
[Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] cwowtbang:
Its the digital age, it takes 5-30 seconds to post a tweet. LOL I am being patient. I'm not just speaking on my behalf. There are other people out there that would like some closure, just look at the General, Q&A's and the other subforums for the device. The posts speak for themselves.
[Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] spence341:
If all those people who are looking for "closure" pony'd up some donations, they could ask all they want. The unrevoked team does not charge for their work, so I would not "expect" anything until it comes. Something you read time and time again on these forums from developers is "don't ask for an ETA".

just my 2 cents.
[Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] cwowtbang:
I didn't ask for an ETA. If you would have read the post thoroughly I never asked for one. Anyway the purpose of this thread is for the team to at least mention they're working on it rather than not saying anything at all. Just my two cents.
[Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Walkingmismatch:
I'd like to get an update to the Unrevoked rooting method myself. I need an update and I need it fast I'm getting itchy hands from wanting to root. Hurry the hell up Unrevoked. You guys need to lay of my buddy cwowtbang's nuts and worry about other **** he's not the only one that's trying to find out when the update will become available there are thousands of us.
[Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Nitrogenus:
You can catch more flies with honey than vinegar.

What about this post makes you think anyone would expedite results to you? All devs, including the Unrevoked team, work hard to produce results, as it is their collective passion to tinker and code. With or without you, results and progress will be made. And, seeing as how you do not sign their paychecks (do you?), there really is no incentive to respond to your gross, and ridiculously aggressive post.

Patience carries a lot of wait.
[Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Timcredible:
So the reason I can't root my droid incredible right now is because of the latest update on the phone? Well, I guess I will stop pulling my hair out trying to figure out what I did wrong then and wait for an update.

As for the donations, I'm a big open source fan, using linux exclusively for a decade, always contribute one way or another, gave a phone to the bitpim group a while back, created a linux help webpage, answer questions in forums, donate a dollar to free apps I use on my droid, etc. Hopefully others do the same thing.
[Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] najaboy:
Quite the sense of entitlement displayed by some. It bears mentioning that none of us are owed a damn thing.
[Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] JaydenR:
Wow this thread went to crap real fast.:eek:
[Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] cwowtbang:
Yeah, all I asked was for a simple acknowledgement. LOL.
[Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] RMarkwald:
Read your "boy's" post above yours, he's "not asking for an ETA"... He just wants someone from Unrevoked to come on here and say "we are working on it..."

If you need it so quick and cannot wait, then learn how to code and contribute. Devs don't need people like you telling them to "hurry up" just because you said so. Mind you, they do this stuff because they enjoy it, and they don't get paid except for when people donate to them. Did it ever occur to anyone that if they just "whipped up" and released something which started bricking phones left and right, everyone would then complain about how it wasn't thoroughly tested?!

Send them a sizable donation with your "hurry it up will ya" message, and see what happens...if not, then just wait like everyone else has to.
[Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] cwowtbang:
Finally, thank you for backing me up. I really appreciate it.
[Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] csseale:
See I do donate..I have many times...fact is I won't donate for an unrooted phone. So its money loss to the devs because the longer I stay unrooted the more I don't donate. Not being a butt just stating the obvious u only donate if u like the service...I get root back I donate. I like a Rom I donate I like a kernel I donate. I will never donate blindly. So stop telling people to donate for nothing. that's nieve and shows Ur level of maturity and business sense.

It's not a lot to ask for some type of hope. Being a supporter and understanding its all done in spare time for free etc. Does not mean someone can not ask a question. Quit brown noseing its not flattering at all. I wish I could learn to be as good at dev as these guys but I am not. But I have given enough money to justify some type of respect.
[Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dadsterflip:
I don't see anything wrong someone asking if their working on it. For all we know they have moved on to better things and you guys are argueing for nothing or donating blindly. I'm sure it's easy to say you can wait cause your already rooted but for people who isn't and waiting for it and can't do much at the moment because who wants to reflash and redownload all the apps etc again? Right now I'm waiting for a new method to root my wife's Inc so I can put that uber skyraider rom but I don't wanna redownload everything again.

So guys. A little sign of hope their working on it doesn't kill anyone and I don't see anyone saying hurry up. Don't get it why some people are making a big deal out of nothing.
[Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] setexascustoms:
The unrevoked team doesn't even accept donations, they encourage you donate to the Electronic Frontier Foundation. I don't think the talented developers on the unrevoked team are going to get upset because you're curious as to whether or not they're working on a salution, but this sense of entitlement from a couple of people here is rediculous. Be patient, I know what's it's like, I installed the froyo OTA and was desperately waiting for them to get unrevoked 3 up and running. All in due time my friends :D
[Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] cymantix:
I exchanged some messages with the unrevoked devs on IRC, and they are actively working on a solution.

On twitter they said a temp fix for EVO is on XDA, expect Inc fix to be released in a couple of days... They have been realy busy as of late...
[Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jsprake1:
Expectations!

People would be better to ask about a thread to watch then to have expectations from these great devs that do not owe you or me an explanation. read the Wiki or make a fix yourselves. They have lives and do not need to tell you what they are working on. They certainly don't need to be hunted down on Twitter or IRC.
[Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Timcredible:
Thanks devs!

Your no help....go away
[Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] spence341:

@ jsprake > Oh Yeah, you are not hunting anyone down when you "follow" someone on twitter and they tweet where they are at... IMHO.
[Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] chrisngrod:
Thank you to those keeping us updated, and a bigger thanks to the unrevoked team for all their work and achievements in general.
[Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mihneagabriel:
Just out of curiosity, the "thousands" of people that are stuck unrooted after the nov update didnt go s-off why?

FWIW, the unrevoked team posted an update, its called rooting before any updates and turning s-off. They even stated this before the 2.2 update.
[Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] chrisngrod:
It's funny that you ask... There's always a good reason....

I just got out of the military and my soon to be ex reported my phone stolen. She's messed up a lot of aspects of my life, and I started flashing phones to Cricket for a little food money (originally just for me to have a cell phone).

Well these people are getting these phones which are probably bad ESN phones. The previous owners probably sat around the house, hooked up to WiFi and saw the update. With nothing better to do and being the average user... They clicked yes. So now I have an Incredible sitting here and someone who has one that needs to be flashed. Both have 3.26.605.1.
[Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] csseale:
I got a refurb with it installed and people getting new phones some already have the ota
[Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] maxnic:
Oh for crying out loud people.... donate, don't donate. Whatever. The unrevoked team has updated on Twitter they're almost ready to release a new root hack for the Droid Incred in a day or two. It's kinda sad to see all the crying going on here, hasn't been two weeks since the drop of the new OTA. It's horrible to see people's sense of entitlement... can this thread be closed now? The OP's original request is fulfilled now, the team is working on it. B-)
[Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] csseale:
Since when did general conversation in a thread become a crime. I guess if Ur a sniveling little teen brat that wants to get his post count up then it must be. If u don't like the thread then don't come in it and annoy us.

..... waiting
[Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] najaboy:
Rather hypocritical, don't you think? :rolleyes:

The last I checked, anyone's free to post within the confines of the site rules, even if you happen to personally disagree with their opinion on a given subject. If that annoys you, that's your problem, not theirs.
[Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] csseale:
Hypocrite : a person who acts in contradiction to his or her stated beliefs or feelings.....

doesn't fit my post at all...sorry

As you said : rollseyes:

But on topic....he was the one wanting the thread closed because he feels the op should be satisfied...who is he....your defending the wrong person buddy. Your post is exactly what you should be telling him. maybe you should pay attention a little more before you bash...thank you
[Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jsprake1:
+ 1 much agreed
[Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] maxnic:
I'm happy with general discussion...I don't think it's a crime, and that wasn't my point, which you've obviously missed. I was merely stating my own beliefs on the subject. In my view, threads are started with a topic, which on this one was "Is the Unrevoked team working on it?" which I gave an answer to, and another one should be started saying "What the hell is going on with Unrevoked, why aren't we fixed yet?" where everyone can pull out their guns and start firing off retorts of where they stand on this. :)

It's once again sad you've personally needed to stoop down low enough to calling me a "sniveling little teen brat"...you've somehow felt the need to resort to name calling to put me in my place. :confused: If you don't like my response that's your right to contradict me like you've done, and I respect you for that. I couldn't care less how many posts I have compared to you or anyone else, what does that do for me, give me "street cred"? I will tell you the truth: this is my second forum I've actually joined in my life...I honestly have no idea what good it does me to have 3 posts or 300 posts.

My point was merely that in my eyes, the Unrevoked team is doing this on their own dime, with the help of donations from those that can donate. The OP(whom I also feel no malice towards) wanted to know if they were working on it, fine! That's perfectly acceptable to want to know that. I stated what the OP wanted to know, the team is working on it, which no one it looked like got around to doing.

I'll join you on this: :rolleyes:

Who am I? I'm just the guy posting the answer to a question! I don't think I'm better than you at all! And don't you think it is hypocritical to chastise me for posting my discussion point? I didn't say anything that was outside the rules of posting and, once again, ANSWERED THE THREAD'S QUESTION. It can be very annoying when you're "Joe Blow" surfing the web, looking for this specific answer, and have to sift through pages of off-topic debate when all you wanted to know was the same thing the OP was asking. That was the main reason I asked for a close to the thread, so someone else who comes along can see the answer and not miss it because it was on page 3 of a 5 page discussion thread...of off-topic posts. If you can't handle someone not in line with the way you think, or actually posting the answer to a question, maybe you shouldn't be here then? We unfortunately in this great big world don't all think alike after all...

To each their own, and I wish you the best, honestly. :D

I noticed lately that the supported devices officially for cyanogenmod is getting bigger and bigger, so maybe one of you guys can talk to cyanogen bout joinin his team.. i remember from his website he had this to say recently:

"A lot of people ask me about adding support for their phone, but we can only support phones that we actually own. The CM team is always looking for new hackers to join up with us to add support for their favorite device. Get in touch with me if you’d like to help."

I know that there is roms pretty much quality and as up to date as an official cyanogenmod, but these roms are only limited by the website its on. unfortunately not everyone knows about xda (shocking thought, since im on here daily).

i hope the big devs for the eris reads this, for im sure its a good idea.....
[Droid Eris Android Development] Nikolai2.1:
Honestly the Roms that get handed out here are better than Cyanogen in that the people that make them implement their own tweaks inside the core of the rom that make them better. I personally WOULD use an official Cyanogen rom because who knows maybe its more stable and all, but still.
[Droid Eris Android Development] zach.xtr:
Since he already plays the role with his kernel and vendor tree, I vote for Canop

Canop for Cyanogenmod!
[Droid Eris Android Development] SikYou:
I vote Conap too! lol

I'm not really sure of much added benefit from "official" cm releases other than the ability to flash a nightly build every day. Most of the devs build their rom directly from cm source or port the nightles. With the way it is now you have a choice of many custom cm roms whereas some devices with "official" cm support only have the cm release.

Sent from my nonsensikal froyo
[Droid Eris Android Development] gnarlyc:
I've wondered about this too, but like others have said... We are probably better off the way it is now or at least not any worse off. The Hero builds are relatively easy to port and building from source has been worked out pretty well, so it doesn't really matter if we have an 'official' one.
[Droid Eris Android Development] skipbarker:
+1 for Conap.

I would like to see an official build.
