Since, apparently, tmo regulates tethering by sensing the browsers user agent setting, is there a method or plugin for Chrome or other desktop browsers to make them appear as an android browser?

firefox has an add-on called user agent switcher
[G2 and Desire Z General] GoLocutus:
Thanks! Exactly what I was looking for. I found a few out there for Chrome I'll have to try.

Sent from my T-Mobile Gt00
[G2 and Desire Z General] g_grey:
easiest way for chrome is to append --useragent="Android" to the end of the shorcut command(right-click>properties>target) or in firefox just edit the string in about:config and filter for useragent should only be one or two entries
[Fascinate General] tallnerd1985:
Hello,

I am working on another media sharing idea and I need some help with it. I recently discovered the ability to mount a Windows shared folder transparently on my SDcard(Which means the folder on my Windows PC is on my SDcard on my phone at the sametime). This works over wifi on my home network but I was looking for a method to do over the Internet or 3G and someone had mentioned VPN. After some trial and error, i was unable to make a connection all the way using the native VPN client in Android. After reading these forums, I found others using OpenVPN to accomplish this on HTC phones so I tried it myself using the openvpn app and binary off the market along with jt1134's kernel which is supposed to be compatible but I failed. If anybody knowd how to get this working, please let me know.
[Hero CDMA General] afma_afma:
Hello people,

Sadly I had to give up my hero for evo 4g. :(

I thank all the developers who have created those great snappy ROMS for the hero.

Thank you all who have been supportive.

Still will be around the EVO Forums.

See ya people.:)
[Hero CDMA General] theimpaler747:
Have fun!!!! Hope you enjoyed the hero :)

[Hero CDMA General] afma_afma:
thank you impaler.
[Hero CDMA General] theimpaler747:
Yeah, well that Epic is sweet :cool: :D
[Hero CDMA General] stayclean:
Too bad there really isn't a CM6 port for it.
[Hero CDMA General] theimpaler747:
Yeah, still no working 4g :eek:
[Hero CDMA General] stayclean:
Well, at least for the EVO, there is work being done on that by toast and etc, obviously no ETA whatsoever, and anyone who expects there to be one is crazy, as just reading about the steps that are needed to do anything with it hurt my brain very, very badly. :D A bit of a bummer for sure, but I do not live in a 4G market anyway (I almost never use 3G anyway, wi-fi most places I go, only use 3G if I'm on the bus), so that's not a problem for me.
[Hero CDMA General] theimpaler747:
I have 4g, so I wouldn't use CM on any 4g phone until it works :)
[Hero CDMA General] stayclean:
In that case, good thing the Epic doesn't have CM or MIUI, ha
[Hero CDMA General] DanWalker:
I'm super hesitant to upgrade to the Evo right now. I have my Hero with CM6 and love it and I have been looking through the Evo threads and I'm not sure I will like the Evo now. I can't even seem to find the best way to root it. I never thought I would say it but I don't wanna leave my Hero!
[Hero CDMA General] theimpaler747:
Whatever, I don't need CM to be happy! :p

Hboot 2.02 S-Off Like a Boss Edition for the newer hardware revisions... it's almost as easy as rooting a hero using the old asroot method. Alot about an hour and half until you are running your final chosen rom (including time for nandroid backups et al)

[Droid 2 Android Development] Hideaki02:
This is awesome! I can't wait for the bugs to get ironed out, AOSP > Moto.
[Droid 2 Android Development] n0yd:
Nice job man. Good to see more roms for these phones. I have no doubt that in time, this AOSP build will lead to lots of great things. Im just hoping this ROM remains open and free, and doesn't turn into" contributionware" which is quite against the GPL because they are trading software for money ie. "Donations" and then not releasing the source.

Right now Im running the newest squiddly, and even though its based on Blur but has most blur removed, it feels just as fast and smooth as Fission. So I really can't wait for the kinks to be worked out of this, and we can have a clean AOSP Rom which will end up being a great building block for other rom cooks.
[Droid 2 Android Development] Thornfulless Rose:
LOL I don't like that either.
[Droid 2 Android Development] kejar31:
I am sorry but what you said here is complete BS!

If you want Fission you are more than welcome to go download it now for free!!! Right Here

If you want access to the latest and greatest updates earlier than everyone else then donate..
[Droid 2 Android Development] Matt4542:
Thanks I appreciate it. Although I don't agree with applications for donater's, I still respect it. My rom will always be free, and I am going to be releasing the source on github soon. Blackdroid said he thinks he has a lock sleep/wake fix, so once that is fixed this will go into beta.
[Droid 2 Android Development] one.:
Again, so glad to see this rom humming right along.

Wish I could help w alpha testing, but I actually need to use my phone too much!

Looking forward to upcoming releases, loving some of the things you have integrated (read: music controls on lockscreen)
[Droid 2 Android Development] n0yd:
Actually it is not BS at all. Go study the GPL for yourself. What they are doing is in violation of the GPL, its ok to give a precompiled version to donators early, IF you are also releasing the source code at the same time. They are not releasing the source code when they release it to donators, and as far as I've seen they have yet to even make their git repo public.
[Droid 2 Android Development] HerroMoto:
Although I'm not going to download the alpha verison of this ROM just yet, I just can't wait for the final version. I'm a big fan of your work Matt. Keep going, we're rooting for ya.
[Droid 2 Android Development] stupidpopmediareference:
Whoooooo! Thanks, Matt!
[Droid 2 Android Development] squidlymandingo:
Congratulations Matt this is exciting, that its all coming together.Awesome job
[Droid 2 Android Development] Thornfulless Rose:
This is gonna be great. I have no doubt this is gonna ROCK! keep it up Matt!
[Droid 2 Android Development] miketoasty:
Being a Fission user I am very happy to see this coming together. I used Fission for a while but don't like the Donationware and not following the GPL.

All things aside I am just happy to see alot of the things Matt has added since his Unleashed was the first Rom I used.
[Droid 2 Android Development] one.:
Was just thinking about something last night -- not sure how implementable it is in reality, orif there already exists a way to achieve this....

I would _love_ it if I could bypass the lockscreen on slide open. Is there any way to accomplish this? I can't understand why this isn't the default or otherwise integrated....

Anyway still looking forward to a more stable release...keep up the good work!

[Android Apps and Games] niuniu2006:
hi, guys , recently i develop a app "find my android ", similar to ip's find my iphone ,to help you find your lost droid. : )

below is capure of my software.

when your sim card changes, my app can see from the imsi.

then app will send a alarm msm or email to you. the new telnum

of your phone attached.

if your droid is stolen , then you can send the signal sms to

the new telnum.

then the app will start a service to report your location to your

email box or another phone.

then you kan use my pc client to locate the phone.

the apk is attached.

if you like this app ,i hope you can vote for me .

this app is also taking part in the google android app contest . i need your vote!!

thanks.

the url is in the pc_python_src.rar thanks.

Maybe at the question "Which langage do you need?", you could have add at the english of your answer, a little "Plz"... Just to show some respect to the developer ;)

Don't forget the developer is sharing this for fun...

Keep it cool guys ;)

See ya.

[Android Apps and Games] Eagleman71:
cool

very nice idea. two questions...

1) i installed it (i have a Pulse with Froyo) and configured it.

After, i changed sim and started the phone. the program wasnt in the active program list so it didnt send me any sms.

2) the location is from GPS or from telephone company area (like google latitude)?

because the GPS is not always present...

ps. good work!
[Android Apps and Games] niuniu2006:
thanks for your report.

i use the wifi+basesattion to locate the phone caus we don't open gps for power saving.

and i just send two number to email for that it's good for phone to do little work and this can protect the running service from being found out , you know ,the less the app doing ,the safer the app is.

[G2 and Desire Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] convolution:
I have done some rummaging around these forums and, correct me if I am mistaken, found that they are the same thing, except they are running different "Roms" or "kernels" ( I don't know the right terminology)

If that is true, and if the hardware is exactly identical, does that mean I can go to the Desire Z part of the XDA forums and download and install anything from there, including ROMS?

And if that is the case, why make two separate forum groups for practically the same phone?
[G2 and Desire Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] creepinm3:
I would believe they are the same but I think the Desire Z has the 4GB internal. That us G2 owners were promised
[G2 and Desire Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Lennyuk:
If you did a search several threads like this already exists.

But to answer your question they are basically the same phone.

Before root and s-off they run on different setup's

G2 - runs on Vanilla android and as a result has a smaller /system partition as vanilla is smalelr

Z - runs on htc sense, this takes a lot of apk's and as a result the phone has a larger /system partition.

They both have slightly different key layouts on the hardkeys

after s-off they are theoretically the exact same device as all differences can be changed.

Custom roms will work on both and kernels will work on both etc etc
[G2 and Desire Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] steviewevie:
Good question. Apparently the mods are looking into it. Basically the main differences are ROM differences, not hardware. So just like with any different device you can get ROM incompatiblity issues. But that's no reason to keep the forums separate though, other devices don't have separate forums for separate ROMs.

Not true. The DZ and G2 have exactly the same memory. 4 GB in theory but setup from the factory to present 2 GB to the rest of the hardware. Just advertised somewhat misleadingly by T-Mobile.
[G2 and Desire Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ianmcquinn:
Another major difference is the UMTS band support. The G2 only supports 1700/2100. The Desire Z only supports 900/2100. The Desire Z NAM (or Bell version) only supports 850/1900.

Though I guess this shouldn't affect the use of custom ROMs (though as stated earlier, the differing partition sizes might).
[G2 and Desire Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Lennyuk:
but after s-off you can amend the partition sizes anyway if you have to
[G2 and Desire Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ianmcquinn:
Can flashing a new ROM edit the partition table for you? (Though a computer engineer by trade, I'm a recent changeover from the world of WinMo phones and am still learning Android-specific stuff.)

If not, I'd imagine users who are not so carefeul simply flashing ROMs without knowing if it'll fit in their system partition (like a G2 user trying to flash a stock Sense from the Desire Z or something like that). Though as you said, easily avoidable with a little research.
[G2 and Desire Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Lennyuk:
well stock sense ruu's won't flash and won't fit on a g2

however I believe currently all custom sense roms do fit on the g2's partition table anyway.

But yes you can build a rom that will change the partition table, although no one has for the G2 yet.
[G2 and Desire Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] blunted09:
only difference i see is stock android vs sense android. I think this is an advantage as most people like switching between the two from time to time.

[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] huggs:
Yeah, removing the buttons themselves is like the 2nd or 3rd from last step, and removing the underlying part that the buttons contact is the step after that.

It looks horribly complicated in the video, and that's under perfect conditions.

You own a dog? Imagine a dog hair getting in there...

And you know how it looks easy in the video and then you try it yourself and it all goes wrong?

My buttons have the same behavior as yours, can be kind of annoying, but if you get used to pressing them squarely, you'll hardly notice it.

I wouldn't risk taking it apart, maybe I'm a wimp :cool:

OK here goes. I downloaded and installed the Business Sense Rom. And it installed then rebooted. From their it went down hill. It would continue to loop after reboot and the Droid Red eye. So like an idiot I went into recovery mode and formatted everything in the Mounts option. Now when I turn the phone off and reboot all I get is the Hboot menu and that's it. It will not goto the main phone stuff. Is their a way to get the phone working again or is it a total write off?
