Yes, I've been holding my order for the Archos 70 to see if root would seem plausible and I just ordered it now. A section at XDA together with Archos release of the source should help us in search for enlightenment :)

Delivery in 2-4 days, final exam for some electronics course next week and then I've got 30 days off Uni to spend on this...hopefully :P
[Gen8, Gen9, Gen10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] BGMArchos:
I have an A70IT 8 GB and have yet to successfully get z4root to work on it. I'm using the latest version (downloaded today).

I look forward to hearing how some people are successfully doing it, at least I get the impression on the fan site, they are doing it successfully. If anyone knows or has the time / desire to help a fellow Archos user out, please feel free to contact me.

[Gen8, Gen9, Gen10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] voidunknown:
I had the same problem with Z4Root not working. I found that powering off (complete power off, no suspending or rebooting) the device and starting it back up again did the trick. I also found that I have better success getting Z4Root to run if its the first program I run after a fresh power up. Don't run anything until you Z4Root.

Let me know if this works for you or not.
[Gen8, Gen9, Gen10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] 675 Trip:
I've been having inconsistent results, but just stumbled across something that might help.

set airplane mode

turn off unknown sources

turn off usb debug

power off

power on

reset airplane mode off/on (doesn't look like it is really on on reboot)

turn on unknown sources

turn on usb debug

run z4root

wait.

seems to be working more consistently. I think these tablets don't save the state of things like unknown sources and usb debug (and airplane mode) very cleanly.

does this proxy app work with z4root ?

i really would like to use the wifi at my university with my archos.
[Gen8, Gen9, Gen10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kenyu73:
I've been using it for some time. The only trick is that you need uncheck USB Debugging and recheck every time you run the z4Root app. Doesn't matter if its currently on, uncheck/re-check and you'll be good. ;)

From the pictures I've seen, I don't see a way to change batteries easily (i.e. without a screwdriver and a knife and some chance of breaking something). Can anyone confirm that? I'm wondering if I can bring a second battery along to help get me (and the kids) through a 12-hour flight?

TIA!

[Nook Color General] ZeroSX:
Not user replaceable in the least, sorry. Not soldered on like the ipad, but definitely not user replaceable without taking the unit apart.

I expect that there will be a bigger battery mod along at some point, it's not one of my priorities though.

[Nook Color General] merrill77:
Thanks for the info! Too bad...I'll never understand that design decision. I've bought second batteries for nearly every phone/pda I've owned.
[Nook Color General] cal3thousand:
Because manufacturers are following Apple's lead to train you to need new crap more often than batteries will die out. And they bank on the fact that consumers will pay for the extra charging and adapter crap that goes along with their products.

It's also cheaper to do it this way. :p

I hate it.
[Nook Color General] cutterjohn:
non-user replaceable batts are just another reason(along with extraordinarily high prices for comparatively poor specs, esp. notebooks) why I, personally, find Apple to no longer be relevant, but at least in this case it's not soldered to the board... just a matter of how difficult it is to disassemble it enough to replace the batt...

...still thinking about getting one of these as I do want a 7" tablet to go along with my 10" gTab, and it WILL also be pulling duty as a poorly lit area reader... 7" is just so much more comfortable for that functionality....
[Nook Color General] clockcycle:
Doesn't look like the battery is soldered in, but it also doesn't look like it's meant to be easily user replaceable.

On the ZDnet teardown, you can see that it is a matter of opening and unpluging the battery, so I don't see a reason why eventually we wouldn't see some higher capacity interchange-ables for the brave..

Someone please port this to the Nexus One.

Thanks!:p
[Nexus One General] agovinoveritas:
Went to through the details there. Although there are some interesting upgrades on the developer's side, the end user side looks YAWNnnn.

If you take into consideration that it was advertised as an sizeable upgrade of the UI. Which is not.
[Nexus One General] mojonation1487:
It wasn't advertised as such. That was way back when gingerbread was still 3.0.

Obviously that changed and so did most of the UI changes.
[Nexus One General] nexus14:
i particularly enjoy

iphone-esque
[Nexus One General] agovinoveritas:
Actually it was. They made a point of it.

http://thetechjournal.com/electronics/mobile/google-works-on-gingerbread-ui.xhtml

Well, there are tons of different sites that state the same. They all come from statements made by Google, granted a while back. However once they changed it to 2.3 instead of 3.0 which was like a month ago through a tweet of all things, they never changed their stance on the UI issue. So yes, it was advertised as such, and they rode that horse, among other things, until pretty much up to the video that was released for their voice app less than week ago.
[Nexus One General] mojonation1487:
ahem notice the date. was still considered 3.0 then.
[Nexus One General] b1337:
wow read much?
[Nexus One General] wdfowty:
All rumors.

From the first sentence in the second paragraph:

Edit: Having looked at the first pictures in the link posted by OP, I can't imagine how you think those are ui improvements. It's not like they were gonna mimic sense ui or miui lol.
[Nexus One General] Award Tour:
This was Android 1.0:

This was Android 2.2:

This was Android 2.3:

These are just homescreens but if you compare other areas, 1.0 to 2.2 wasn't such a big visual change but 2.2 to 2.3 is. We might just be looking at that "huge" UI change. And IMO it (or whatever it is or you want to call it) ain't that great.
[Nexus One General] wdfowty:
You don't HAVE to use it ;)
[Nexus One General] Award Tour:
What am I supposed to use then? A amateur made theme? I think it's okay to expect a little (a lot?) more from the creator (who is loaded with talent) of the OS itself especially since Froyo looked way better. Anyway, this type of discussion doesn't really belong in this forum so I'll stop here.
[Nexus One General] bryanchapman9999:
That it is, but you have to say the iPhone cut / paste really works.
[Nexus One General] Prof-KOS:
I like it. It's still pretty basic, but the white status bar I'm glad to see go. I usually have it set to black now in CM 6.1 anyway, but it's nice that it's the standard. From previous links it looks like the pop up windows are slightly tweaked as well. It's not a huge departure form the previous versions, but it's significant. Not sure about the green icons though.
[Nexus One General] oxinai:
There were reports a month or so ago that the UI designer they got from Palm was still working on stuff, so the Gingerbread UI updates got pushed back.
[Nexus One General] Dai323:
If you want MASSIVE UI changes, MIUI is your friend :)

[Nexus One General] rizzy123:
does gingerbread allow you to stream your itunes music to your PC like they showed at Google IO or is this a later feature or do we still have to rely on 3rd party apps?
[Nexus One General] B Dizzle:
+1 for MIUI! UI overhaul.
[Nexus One General] JKshowman:
ditto

but i want to see features from gingerbread
[Nexus One General] Award Tour:
To those saying that this isn't "the big UI overhaul" we've been hearing about, I don't know but it seems like Google thinks it is. As part of the Nexus S youtube introduction they highlight the "refreshed UI" (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2SBMrauRSX0) on a dedicated video. I'm pretty sure that this is it. Disappointing really.

I don't even care about a whole new user experience (sure some maybe some new things which I guess 2.3 does kind of brings) but realistically I just wanted it to be a visual improvement from Froyo. What I see is just a bunch of sub par design choices that destroys the original identity of Android (white, matte, simplistic design with orange highlights). 2.3 brings a lot of visual inconsistency, loud/ugly/clashing neon color combinations, black void, and a whole lot of ugliness in terms of graphic design.

Man, I just can't get over how bad the design/graphics/visuals are in 2.3.
[Nexus One General] gibosn6594:
I'm just curious where the stuff mentioned at the I/O is.
[Nexus One General] msavic6:
I'm wondering this same thing.
[Nexus One General] danger-rat:
There was a YouTube video of the IO earlier in the year, showing streaming PC to phone media, picking apps from PC to direct download to phone, media player with a gallery feel, etc...

Search YouTube...
[Nexus One General] msavic6:
I believe he meant where are the features that were shown at Google io. Like for example the music streaming from your computer to your phone was shown as well as a new design for the music player. None of these features were mentioned in gingerbread. I'm hoping they get included in gingerbread.
[Nexus One General] NexusDro:
Slightly related note: On the Android 2.3 user guide, it says that you can move apps from phone to either SD or to USB device. Does that mean Gingerbread now supports USB-to-go/usb hub or whatever it is called?
[Nexus One General] :
thats gonna be an update to the music app which will come from the market after gingerbread. one of the google engineers mentioned it
[Nexus One General] danger-rat:
Possibly for tablets?
[Nexus One General] danger-rat:
Doh - sorry!

[Nexus One General] lpasq:
...my impression of the ui look after running 2.3 in the sdk emulator is that so far no big change to what we are use to and what we can get from cm6.1.0-n1's sexus sauce :D ...can't wait for the ota or aosp to drop the gbread code so we can take her for a test drive :cool:
[Nexus One General] khaytsus:

[Nexus One General] Rusty!:
Looking at Nexus S screen shots, it would appear they're calling the non-removable external storage "USB storage"
[Nexus One General] onesavior:
How come I keep seeing on twitter/android central all these phones with 2.3 and we have nothing for the N1?
[Nexus One General] Lord_Buckington:
Yeah, something similar was mentioned in one of the many Nexus S articles I've seen in the last couple of days. Engadget mention it in their preview here

Forgive my ignorance, but if the phone storage is 16GB and we can't remove it, why would we want to move it to another partition when it serves the same purpose regardless of "where" in the 16gb storage it is. If that makes sense.
[Nexus One General] draugaz:
Due to the s****y external media standards which are common nowadays.

The problem is, that USB removable storage standard assumes exclusive access to the whole filesystem. From android point of view it just "dissapears" when connected to the computer.

This and the fact, that FAT32 has virtually no support for security attributes (users, rights etc) makes it unusable as a standard android filesystem.

As far as I can tell from the screenshots, Nexus S is partitioned to use 1GB for internal android filesystem and 15GB as a "removable" storage.
[Nexus One General] Lord_Buckington:
Thanks, that's a really useful explanation. Makes sense now :)
[Nexus One General] mayad79:
Adam g just ported an experimental 2.3 for the desire.
[Hero, G2 Touch General] L0cke:

Have you got your USB connect ? With my last release I have the same problem :) (Same with this one ! )

For this release my 1st comments (on 1rst boot), I have wait long time on this:

- the line : [ 65.181213] release 'boot-time' halt_lock

- HTC screen

- And boot animation

2nd boot :

Just boot screen animation is very long ...

After many times when the sreen is off, it's reboot ... (So on Windows normally !)

But I think your boot animation it's very very nice ;)

I must test more time, but I think it's not very speed but very good look and animations ;)

It's a good works my friend !!

- Put you card on PC.

- Clic right on the SD card

- Choose "Format"

- On the next screen choose "FAT32" , you can check "Quick Format"

;)

- Add your folder "Andoid" on the root of the SD

- Put SD on your TG

- Click on "CLRCAD" (nothing appear it's normaly) and clic on "haret"

- After many time, you can try Andoid ;)

To anyone interested in how to go back to wm without holding power button:

I was playing around after switching to japanese because I wanted to see if the messages in the terminal are also in japanese... and found out how to reboot ;)

1.Middle onscreen button>Terminal emulator

2.type: su

3.ALLOW (Superuser Request)

4.type: reboot

I hope I made your life simplier:)

PS: I've discovered something really weird. This system can display all characters from all languages (even non-latin: chinese, japanese, arabic, korean, russian etc.) but it cannot display modified latin characters from slavic languages (polish, czech, slovak) like ąęść, šč etc. but! it can display polish "Ł" without any problems.

[TG01 ROM Development] leeston2379:
Or just plug the charger in, as i found out because angry birds drains your battery fast.
[TG01 ROM Development] leeston2379:
When you click on it, its shouldn't do anything obvious to you, its whats its doing that you can't see that matters.

All windows phones will run a .exe. It just depends on what the .exe does as not all operations are visually indicated.

If you can't click on it then which file explorer are you using, have you tried a different one? Can you click HaRET in the same file explorer?
