I am on v4 and with the awesome battery life I am getting I am a little sketchy about switching. I was going to try v5 but didnt want to bother with having to flash other pieces to get it to work right. I will probably wait to see whats up with v6. But I am quite happy right now.

So I use Logmein Ignition in order to remote access my computer from my phone, but I was wondering if there was a way to remote control my android phone from my computer. I know Logmein Rescue provides that service but im not going to pay 1000+ for that.
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] benjymous:
If you're rooted, there's a VNC server app for android
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] taranfx:
You can use the VNC server for remote control via a pc or another android phone.

[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] havikx:
So i've been trying to gain 710oc speeds on my g1. after applying the angry birds fix, its so close to being playable and i think another 96mhz might just help it a little.

currently, i'm using the mytouch 2.2 Rom by ezterry. radio and spl below.

i changed kernels from ezterry's 2708enabled kernel to pershoots latest kernel recently. it all works fine, but i was expecting it to be 710oc. it is still at 614. and there are so many options of kernels that now i'm getting confused as to which one is which.

also, the kernels all say cm in them. should this be a concern to me, using the mytouch2.2 rom?

i'm hoping some1 could direct me the flashable 2708enabled kernel with 710oc speeds that will work with mytouch 2.2 rom. help is always appreciated. thanks in advance.
[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jamal717:
I wouldnt even wanna push it to 710 lol :) anywho whats the AB fix?
[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mzmo:
Ooh pushing it to 710 would make it HIGHLY unstable. There are already issues at 614mhz. So if I was you...a 710mhz is a no no :P

Btw what's the Angry Birds fix?
[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Bigt2003:
You would have to ask Ezterry, dumfuk, pershoot, or another kernel dev to make you one that's 2708 compatible. Also, running at 614 can cause random freezes. Multiply that by 96, and 710 isn't that much of a gain once you factor in how often it would freeze and you'd have to pull the battery. Running Angry Birds on a G1 is like running Windows 7 on a Pentium.

+1 for the Angry Birds fix. Where'd you find that at?
[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Xx12thANG3LxX:
Its the kernel that's not letting you clock faster. 710 lol why so high. Stay with 528 man. G1 not supposed to clock any higher than that. At most 576 if you really think its that much better.

I know this is the Vibrant section but i am curious to find out how many of you have or will be buying the new Galaxy Tab and if you have or will what carrier? Did you stick with T-Mobile or bought one from the other 3 carriers?

I personally bought the T-Mobile tab and it is great, just waiting for someone to get it to work with a Vibrant SIM to have access to 3G.
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] pegasus912:
When the wifi only version comes out I will probably get one, web pages render so much faster on the tab then on my ipad.

[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] OuncE718:
No offense, but I'm surprised that some of you bought the Galaxy Tab especially after owning a Galaxy S phone and knowing the issues. I guess the Tab doesn't have the lag issues? Is it Touch Wiz? I know nothing about the Tab other than its expensive and its Samsung made so please bare with me. I'm definitely thinking about getting my lady a Archos Tab for X-Mas though.

I got the T-Mobile TAB. Thing is awesome. And it is much faster than the Vibrant because it doesn't run the dialer services and stuff.

[Nook Color General] ojo8:
For the applications that don't have working soft buttons. Is it possible to manually edit the application settings by editing some file? I'm trying to get Perfect Viewer to work in landscape mode but I am unable to access the menu through the application.
[Nook Color General] ojo8:
I figured it out. If anyone is interested in using perfect viewer, here are the instructions. I'm not sure if you need superuser installed to get permission to write in the data folder but I already had it installed prior to doing this.

adb pull /data/data/com.rookiestudio.perfectviewer/shared_prefs/perfect_viewer_settings.xml

edit the xml file so the following are true

<boolean name="ScreenAutoRotate" value="true" />

<boolean name="EnableImageCache" value="true" />

adb push perfect_viewer_settings.xml /data/data/com.rookiestudio.perfectviewer/shared_prefs/

Those tools need additional hardware - they won't work on their own.

[Hero CDMA Accessories] CraigCraig:
My HTC Hero has a broken touch screen and LCD screen.

Can anyone suggest a cheap place to get them from?

And if anyone is wondering how it broke, I ran it over with my van. :mad:

Not intentionally of course.

Phone is from Alltel so it would be $95 to claim it on insurance

Also does anyone have any suggestions what I can put on the screen until I can replace it? It's rough on the fingers to use because of the cracks.
[Hero CDMA Accessories] Zsneil:
EBAY

Yup eBay has every spare part you would want for your Hero. I just ordered a digitizer yesterday (thats your screen), and that all you need to replace if behind the broken digitizer is a clear picture on your lcd.
[Hero CDMA Accessories] meixner76:
This has happened to me twice. I got replacement on ebay for 30 dollars. It includes the whole front panel, touch screen digitizer, and lcd screen. It took me 5 minutes to replace. Just a couple of screws and a connector. Easy Peasy!
[Hero CDMA Accessories] gadgetcraze:
I dropped my hero yesterday as well. There was no damage to the screen/ LCD but there are a few scratches to the body. Are there replacements for that as well?
[Hero CDMA Accessories] xNotta:
Supposedly sprint will fix any physical damages to the phone, as long as it still works.

supposed to do it for $35 in store without the $7 protection plan.

http://bit.ly/g5RfAB < Goes to the repair part of sprint's website.

I haven't tried it, so let us know if they will fix it.
[Hero CDMA Accessories] Badzuk:
I was quoted $35 by two different sprint stores to replace my screen. Still haven't fixed it yet, it is only a small crack in the corner and doesn't bug me that much.
[Hero CDMA Accessories] coppertop4646:
Put regular tape over it

http://cgi.ebay.com/HTC-HERO-OEM-LC...919428?pt=PDA_Accessories&hash=item3f057b8004

I bought that before..include LCD, Digitizer, and Front Bezel. The bezel was scuffed up and had a few nicks but the digitizer and LCD were in perfect condition.
[Hero CDMA Accessories] i@jim:
Don't try that at home

Based on personal experience

:(

I strongly advise against attempting a DIY screen replacement.

Here's my sad story:

1) I dropped my poor little hero, then managed to step on it screen down, completely scratching the entire screen surface.

2) I went on eBay and spent about $40 for a replacement screen/digitizer kit.

3) The kit arrived 10 days later. Very nice package - appeared to be high quality.

4) I followed the directions to the letter. (fwiw I'm generally pretty skilled at this sort of repair stuff, and have repaired other phones and computers with good results).

5) My little hero is no more. It works like crap. None of the buttons work correctly. The trackball no longer works consistently. It's essentially unusable (except maybe as a backup storage device).

:(

If any good can come of this, perhaps it will be that others will read my sad tale and avoid a similar fate!

Yours,

Jim
[Hero CDMA Accessories] coppertop4646:
When you stepped on it it probably damaged the motherboard or some other part because the digitizer doesn't really have anything to do with the trackball.
[Hero CDMA Accessories] meixner76:
You do have to make sure the trackball housing is inserted correctly in the new bezel. Also, do not overtighten the screws on the bottom or the buttons work wonky. I just tightened them a little, checked, and made sure I didn't over tighten.
[Legend General] ilea94:
Hey guys.

I was happy a few minutes ago when i saw that i can upgrade my legend to Froyo (Vodafone) but now my touchscreen isn´t working :(

Any ideas whats wrong ?

hard resest didn´t help.

I have to say that i startet earlier to downgrade my phone with the tut on this site and i wanted to root but i decided then not to root.

So i installed a RUU from shipped roms.The Ger vodafone one.

I want to use my phone again :(
[Legend General] ilea94:
Sorry for push but noone an idea?

I don´t know what to do now.
[Legend General] Dr.Romca:
Can you re-install the upgrade? I'd start there...it could be some incompatibility between the rooting files and shipped ROM. You may also consider finishing the rooting procedure and then unroot if you don't want to stay rooted...
[Legend General] ilea94:
the root and unroot idea is good but how can i do it ?

I can´t even start debugging mode.
[Legend General] Dr.Romca:
You can do that by just using the optical trackball...settings/apps/development/
[Legend General] ilea94:
i can´t even unlock my phone.
[Legend General] Marcellus_pnz:
Press MENU to unlock the screen
[Legend General] ilea94:
When i Press MENU button or any other it doesn´t unlock the screen. :(

Edit: I can be for sure that the button is working because when i try to unlock my screen the light didn´t turn off when i press Menu button.

Edit: 2 . Got it now working.I called myself :D
[Legend General] Dr.Romca:
:D good thinking
[Legend General] ilea94:
hmm bad news...

none of my SD Cards are seen by the phone.

I don´t know why.

I also tried to enable Wifi (just to try) and it also doesn´t work.

is there now any chance to get it working ?
[Legend General] BlaY0:
Can you check your kernel version (Settings->About phone->Software information)? I might know what's wrong.

Thanks for your help :)
[Legend General] BlaY0:
That's what I thought but needed to be 100% sure. Your system was updated but boot.img was not. So you have new system and old kernel + initrd. Thatswhy things like Wi-Fi and touchscreen don't work. Can you tell me also which HBOOT are you presently using?
[Legend General] ilea94:
Hey i think your right.

i have 0.43.0001

Radio is 7.08.35.21

You´re a genius :)

but is it possible to solve the problem myself ?
[Legend General] BlaY0:
You most probably have a bad block on boot partition thatswhy boot.img wasn't flashed (I guess). Try a customized kernel (in dev forum) which is smaller and fits boot partition with bad blocks too.
[Legend General] ilea94:
so you belive that i can fix it wothout sending it to the repair ?

That would be awsome :)

But i´m not sure how to install the kernel.

I found this kernel (it´s yours :D )

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=856786

I also found this tut

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=698404

But i can´t use this tut right? because my phone isn´t rooted.

So i searched and i saw this thread

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=794829

I can´t install Root Manager so how can i do it ?

Have to say : Thank you for your help :)
[Legend General] BlaY0:
Basically if you don't want to root, it would be much easier than following the above. First you need to grab Vodafone FroYo OTA update zip. Inside you will find firmware.zip. Rename it to LEGEIMG.zip and put it to your phone's sdcard. Reboot your phone into bootloader. It should find LEGEIMG.zip and start update. First it should upgrade HBOOT to 1.00 and then everything else except the system which is already the latest version.
[Legend General] ilea94:
thanks going to download. What shall i do now?

And if i can fix it i can root my phone.it´s okay.but how can i do it if i can´t create for example a goldcard?

Edit : Thaks going to try.

Edit 2 : Ok it loaded the zip but now i get an error.CID incorrect.Update Fail!

Does it mean that i easely have to create a coldcard ?
[Legend General] BlaY0:
If you want to root afterwards, you should follow this guide...

What's your CID?
[Legend General] ilea94:
ok sorry im a little bit confused but with your help i see hope :D

So my first question is.

If i want to root later do i have to follow your guide from now on ?

2) I have an goldgard.img from my last try to downgrade my phone.Ist it ok if i format my SD card (the same as last time ) and Patch the Card?

3) i´m not sure what my Cid is.sorry.

Edit: You Are My GOD!

I had the right goldcard file for creating one.And now it is workiiing :)

Thank you Thank you Thank you :)

But one question is left.

How can i root now ? With your tut ? or the normal downgrade tut ? I´m not sure if i want to i would like to know .

UPDATE: An anonymous contributor is going to help me get the phone for $150. I am going to need enuff for $150 plus tax plus shipping (overnight preferrably so he can get started asap). So with that being said if you use the donate to me button on my profile or send the payment to paypal email jjhudson1 at gmail.com we can get this ship sailing. For the sake of transparency I plan on only using enough money to cover costs and any other money that comes in I will find a fair way to take care of either by giving money back or donating to another dev or even start funding for another dev like EvilD to get a phone. I AM NOT TRYING TO MAKE A PROFIT, and I will even show receipts upon request if anyone asks me to. Also if you don't feel like getting charged the paypal commision fee and want 100% of your donation to go towards the phone, select the payment as personal -> gift to avoid the paypal transaction fee.

Ok people, Zinx was the clear winner of our dev wishlist poll, so now it's time to step up and show your contributions to our community. Kmobs recommended Zinx to take over the MT4G CM6 port, and Zinx has agreed to start working on it. Now we just need to step up and help him get this phone.

A little info on Zinx for those who might be unfamiliar:

- Core contributor to the G2 CM6 port

- Ported CM kernel to the MT3G 3.5mm

- Contributed work on battery issues on Dream/Sapphire

- TeamDouche member recommended by Kmobs to help us with our CM6 port.

That being said, just to make sure everyone's clear by accepting the phone Zinx is committing to giving his full effort into getting the port working completely as soon as possible. But there is no guarantee the video issues effecting the camera will be worked out. The camera issues are indeed one hairy beast, but kmobs seemed confident Zinx is our best shot at getting this thing figured out.

I'll start things off by contributing $20 for now. Please show your support and help us get this thing done. Also if you have an upgrade that you would be willing to share to help us get Zinx a MT4G, they would expedite the process greatly.

Goal for Zinx Achieved: Waiting for paypal to give me the damn moniez so we can get the phone

I think that whatever is left-over should go to another developer (EvilD or Toast would be my preference). I'll let the majority decide but you whould not be giving anything back because

1. It will be a complete mess trying to decide who gets what

2. Commitment is a commitment. If someone was willing to pay $XX to get CM only, I'm sure they will have no problem getting CM and something else for the same $XX.

Thank you for organizing and handling this matter.

do i send the donation to "itmustbejj" or "Zinx" donate to me button? i'm ready to send the money ***NOW***
[myTouch 4G General] itmustbejj:
My preference would be to get EvilD a phone, then we have an awesome CM dev and an awesome dev for sense roms.

It actually wouldn't be that hard to figure out how to give money back. Take the whole amount and figure out what % each person donated and then they get that % of the remainder back.

But I think we should just try to get another dev another phone and keep this gravy train rolling :)
[myTouch 4G General] itmustbejj:
You would donate to me. I am actually starting a new line to get the phone and am shipping it to Zinx so I will need the $$$
