Thanks! But...

Thanks for getting back to me so quickly! :o

I just had a couple more if you don't mind. I read through the thread that you posted. I'm still confused about one thing...so the TnT 2.2 ROM doesn't already have the correct wpsupplicant file because I can view the adhoc running off my Droid Incredible it just will not actually connect? It sits in "obtaining address" mode.

Anyway, I tried the two workarounds I thought I found. First, without copying the new file, I tried using static IP but while using both Barnacle and Wireless Tether from the Android store neither connected.

Second, I tried dumping the wpsupp file from the thread you pointed out however I don't have permission to delete or copy files either through the Root Explorer on my GTab or via my PC. (I did download FTP Server app for the GTab so I have been able to copy and paste files on my GTab via my PC in the past).

I'm sorry for all the confusion. Like I'm sure you've heard many times before, I'm not only new to Android but no the most computer savvy guy out there. Any more help would be greatly appreciated! Thanks!
[G Tablet General] roebeet:
TnT Lite 2.2.x has this file already, so something else is going on. I think I added it back in 2.0.2 or 2.0.3.
[G Tablet General] jon2332:
Hey Roe...

I figured that was the case. I am now wondering if it's something my my Droid Incredible. Like I said, I can view the Ad HOC on my GTab however no matter what I do it simply will not connect after attempting to obtain the address.

I guess I'll keep messing around. If you come across anything let me know!

Thanks again Roe. And by the way, I REALLY appreciate your work on the flash. It works great!!!!
[G Tablet General] dkhilo:
To get my ad hoc working on my droid I had to turn of the access control settings. Barnacle and wireless tether couldn't work with it set. Some builds aren't able to use it. I'm running cyanogen 6.1 on droid 1.
[G Tablet General] jon2332:
Thanks

Thanks for the responses guys. I did find a work around though. A guy on another site demonstrated how to hack the Droid Incredible so I can turn on the 3g hotspot already inherent to Android 2.2 without getting charged. It works great! Guess I will have to see if that's the case. Thanks again.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] pflatlyne:
Is there any sort of app that can redirect phone calls through a2dp. I can get a gadget that will allow me to contorol my media player and stream music over bt to an iphone dock but I also need to calls to come throuhg those speaker. A microphone isnt a problem as the phone has one that will work fine. What I need to do is have phone calls,if an a2dp device is present and connected use that instead of the phones speaker. Otherwise I have to go buy a BT radio for my car. (which comes with an ipod dock but no bt)
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] 95gsrsedan:
you might could just use an auxiliary input to get just the audio out. Pretty sure you can't use a2dp for phone calls.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] fenixjn:
If the BT device has the headset profile you should be able to receive calls on it, many BT enabled car stereos and BT headphones are able to carry A2DP, AVCR and the headset profile.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mikepotts64:
I want the same for my Blackberry A2DP gateway in car

I have a blacberry A2DP gateway in my car that connects ipads, htc phone and iphone to the stereo input of my car sound system. The sound quality is excellent for all uses but the incoming phone calls are routed via the phone internal speaker unless I plug a second stereo cable into the car input jack.

Can I get htc hd2 windows mobile 6.5 phone mono into this gateway device to avoid having to connect a stereo cable to my phone output? It connects to the HTC as stereo audio only.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] pflatlyne:
So in other words,the answer is no,there IS no such app. As I said,I can buy a gadget that will connect A2DP to a I-Pod interface. It does NOT have headset profile.
[HD7 General] SugarMouth:
I can't seem to find a way to charge the phone while off. If I turn it off then plug the power cord in, the phone turns on. If I plug the phone in then power off the phone turns back on.

Any ideas?
[HD7 General] phonepersonality:
There's nothing to be done about it.

I contacted HTC about this in the past and their take on it is that its the nature of the beast. If the charger is plugged in, then the phone will stay on.

Sorry :(
[HD7 General] hukkguai:
Is there a reason you would want the phone to be off while it's charging?
[HD7 General] Jim Coleman:
Can't see why you'd want the phone switched off at all.... I'm fairly certain the phone needs to be switched on so it can manage the charging process, monitor when the battery is fully charged and therefore prevent overcharging which would wreck the battery.

But the concept of switching off the phone at all is.....weird. It's an "always on" device!

Sprint Activation

By activation I am assuming you mean gain network access to the Sprint data system? It should have prompted you for activation data at boot. Try through settings to connect to the mobile network and that should reinitiate the activation process. Not sure if this helps...
[Galaxy Tab General] ChiTown Pdaddy:
Sprint Activation

[Galaxy Tab General] keyl10:
Thanks for the reply. I meant I bought the Tab without a data plan and do not wish to. It keeps trying to activate but cant. I am looking for a way around it.
[Galaxy Tab General] rkmj:
I've been grappling with this for a while now, and unfortunately, the activation process can only happen if you were to have service. You could, thanks to Sprint's 30 money back guarantee, buy a month of service, activate your device, and then cancel the service within a few days and you won't be charged. Of course, this invovles spending a whole lot of time on the phone with Sprint, or going into a Sprint store, which you may not want to do. Don't worry though, there is another option.

I decided I didn't want to go through any hassle, so I spent some time fooling around with the system and came up with the following method. It took me a while to in the application manager to track down the programs responsible for the activation prompt, but I found them. What you need to do is this:

NOTE: I have tested this on the SPRINT Tab with the latest software.

*DO NOT uninstall any of these apps, just "Freeze" them. If you delete any, you may loose the ability to do firmware and Android OS updates!*

1. Root your Tab, (preferably with z4root), I suggest using the "permanent root" option.

2. Go to Menu -> Settings -> Applications -> Development -> and check "USB Debugging"

3. Install Titanium Backup

4. Run Titanium Backup and go into "Backup/Restore" Look for "Software Update 1.5.0" in the list.

5. Tap the application name.

6. On the window that comes up, select "Freeze" It will give you a confirmation of success and the "Freeze" button will change to "Defrost" now hit the back button.

7. Locate "Sprint Installer 2.0", "Sprint Zone SZ 2.1.11", and "System Updates 1.0.0" Repeat steps 5 and 6 for each of these applications.

8. Close Titanium Backup

9. Restart

Now the activation prompt will not come up and it won't interrupt you when using your Tab. It doesn't affect anything if you plan to use the Tab off-contract with Wifi only.

I chose to "Freeze" the apps because it denies them access to the system, which removes the activation problem. I didn't uninstall them, though because if you want to activate it on the network at any time later, or you need to do a Firmware/Android OS update through official channels, you may need these apps.

If you want to undo this at any time, follow the directions the same way, but during step 6 select "Defrost" instead of "Freeze"

I hope this helps.

Thanks

Works great! Thanks for the info.

It´s posible active the phone

Hi there, Do you think is´t posible to liberate the phone?
[Galaxy Tab General] kamgrn:
This is EXACTLY what I was looking for! Worked GREAT! Thanks!

... but I have a question regarding 2 of the items that are frozen now. like the Software Update 1.5.0 & System Updates 1.0.0 --- are they specific to sprint? what exactly are these for and why do these have to be frozen in order to disable the sprint activation? will i still be able to get firmware updates and all that jazz?

if i want to check for updates, do i need to defrost these?
[Galaxy Tab General] MSteinmetz:
How to get root app

maybe I'm missing something but how do you get the root app. I.e. to bypass activation you need a root application. However I can't find a way to download apps without the tab being activated. Seems like a paradox. In a nut shell how can I get the z4root application installed when the tab is not yet activated?

Thanks for any help
[Galaxy Tab General] IP IHI II IL:
You can always turn on the WiFi, and connect it to an available network to gain access to the Market.

I too have been struggling with the activation prompt, and since Rooting is still somewhat touchy with our SPH-P100, I've found that the best answer is to put your Tab in Airplane mode, and manually turn on the WiFi. This will keep any options you're unsure of on the back burner 'til the devs here have some more time to save money for, and play with the Tab!
[Galaxy Tab General] kamgrn:
You can find z4root here http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=833953

I have a Sprint tab, and if you hit cancel on the activation each time you turn the device on, you can still access your home screen and all the apps and enable wifi to access the market.

To permanently bypass activation, side load & install the z4root app from the link above and install Titanum Backup from the market .. follow the instructions posted by rkmj earlier in this thread.
[Galaxy Tab General] rkmj:
Sorry for taking so long to respond to this, but my XDA notification settings were all screwed up. I just realized that you asked this. Software Update 1.5.0 and System Updates seem to be Samsung apps that are tied directly to Sprint Zone and the activtion prompt. They run periodically and when they activate, they query Sprint Zone to see if the device has been activated on the network. In order to stop the activation prompt, these need to stop running.

I can't really tell about firmware updates just yet. Based on the way Sprint generally provides them, you will have the option of OTA or via PC. With this fix in place, you will need to run the update via the PC. If you wanted to get the firmware updates OTA, you will need to defrost the programs. Unfortunately, you will also have to activate the device.

My method doesn't change anything on the device. It just disables the prompt. In order to receive anything OTA, you will have to activate the device. I have a theory about how you can both disable the prompt and still query for OTA updates, but I have to do a bit of testing first. I will post back here once I have tested it completely.

Has anyone heard any news about Android getting the official netflix app so that we can each netflix ? I get jealous when I see the iPhone 4 being able to each movies off the netflix app with the click of a button
[EVO 4G Themes and Apps] jb0134:
There was something on netflix's official blog last month. Bla bla bla DRM, bla bla bla some phones, bla bla bla early next year.
[EVO 4G Themes and Apps] semperlux:
DRM, yeah... that sux but not surprising. Apple is playing by the rules and I don't think Android can because no one entity owns it. So it may have to be a deal that Netflix makes with carriers individually, ie. Verizon, Sprint.

Why Isn’t Netflix on Android? Not Secure Enough To Suit Hollywood
[EVO 4G Themes and Apps] vrojas25:
I called netflix and they said by the end of the there should be able to get it
[EVO 4G Themes and Apps] chillenandy321:
Any updates on Netflix app?
[EVO 4G Themes and Apps] ClevelandWheeler:
Good question. Guess the "were getting it by the end of the year" was wrong. From what I have seen only certain phones will get it as they are making the deals with the phone manufacturers not the carriers. No word on the release, if there is going to be one.
[EVO 4G Themes and Apps] jpmaniac87:
I wonder if the latest official ota update was to suit that with DRM garbage... so maybe soon???
[EVO 4G Themes and Apps] nYdGeo:
This is just one man's opinion based on logic and what he see's, but Netflix explanations as to why their app is not out yet for Android is ridiculous. First and pretty much...it, Blockbuster would have to meet all the same DRM criteria as Netflix and their app is on our Evos (or it was :).

More likely it has to do with the founder and CEO of Netflix being on the board of directors at Microsoft, who in spite of what we are shown in the press, gets along quite nicely with Apple. They make lots of money off of MS Office for Mac among other things.

I see conflict of interest and BS, but others see nothing. Maybe they are right.

Thank you for your time.
[EVO 4G Themes and Apps] dwd3885:
it's just netflix dragging their ass. Blockbuster has an app. Netflix has apps on iPhone and Windows Phone. It's ridiculous it isn't on android at the moment.
[EVO 4G Themes and Apps] gotshores:

[EVO 4G Themes and Apps] chillenandy321:
yes interesting..
[EVO 4G Themes and Apps] okcnyyfan:
I'm not getting my hopes up on Netflix for the Evo. The phone at CES that had Netflix on it is going to be a Verizon phone. After their latest stunt with Skype video calling, I wouldn't be surprised if Netflix ends up being a Verizon only app.
[EVO 4G Themes and Apps] ClevelandWheeler:
Who is "their"? Skype has nothing to do with Netflix.
[EVO 4G Themes and Apps] matt2053:
"Their" is Verizon, he was referring to how Verizon had Skype exclusively for a while, and implying that they are likely to try something similar with Netflix.
[EVO 4G Themes and Apps] ClevelandWheeler:
ahh I see. Nexflix has already said they are dealing with the manufacturers and not the carriers but I guess the carriers could always take it off the phone. Not that that would stop us rooted users from getting our paws on it.
[EVO 4G Themes and Apps] kenvan19:
If I remember the article correctly, Netflix said that there were rights concerns and as such they would only be releasing the app on select new devices.
[EVO 4G Themes and Apps] ClevelandWheeler:
From Netflix, "we are able to work with individual handset manufacturers to add content protection to their devices"

Full article HERE
[EVO 4G Themes and Apps] kenvan19:
Ah, so I was half right. They will be releasing new phones this year with it but will continue to try and add it to all phones.
[EVO 4G Themes and Apps] ClevelandWheeler:
as I see it yes.
[EVO 4G Themes and Apps] sgt. slaughter:
BUT it coming to VZ is a good thing in the end as it should not be too hard to port over to work on the Evo....ala the NFL app that lives on all other android phones that is only on VZ.

Hopefully a dump of the phone can be had somewhere and we can get the apk out and get to work!!
[EVO 4G Themes and Apps] timothydonohue:
haven't finished the video yet, but something is weird when bing is pre-installed on an android phone. that spells microsoft, which is probably where the DRM management is coming in that will allow for netflix usage.

i'm betting that a port to get the netflix app installed on something that doesn't have DRM management tied into the framework is going to be a pain in the arse
[EVO 4G Themes and Apps] banksj17:
Not sure if anyone has said this but about a month ago Google bought the company that developed and manages Netflix DRM system. I will try to find the article I read about it.

[Focus General] dead_on_the_floor:
Can anyone tell me the GPS settings for the Rogers Branded Focus?

I've been mucking with my settings, both from the main diagnostic menu and from the GPS test app, and I seem to have messed up a setting somewhere and cannot get "Location" to show on Bing Maps. It keep saying, 'searching' without returning a location.

I'm Interested in the following settings from the Diagnosis app:

(default settings is displayed as sub-heading when entering the option)

MOLR CP/UP

3G MOLR request type

TLS option

and in the GPS test app:

(*#1472365# from diagnosis main screen)

In the ... menu, go to settings:

QoSAccuracyMeter

(read setting)

QoSTimeoutSec

(read setting)

Any help would be handy.

Thanks.

Thanks! I too get these values but still GPS is not working..In status it says: Location service is off..when I start the tracking, it says "data unavailable, high accuracy". I have tried to toggle to low accuracy but still it does not get changed. GPSinfo app shows GPS as off..

Please help. GPS was working a few days back..but it has stopped working now..has the chip gone bad?
[Focus General] pback:
Is wifi turned on? Toggle wifi on/off then try diagnosis again. I got the same message then toggling the wifi got it working.
[Focus General] sandrobber:
Curious?

I've always wondered why the gps lock was so quick. My theory is that the GPS must heavaly rely on AGPS not a real gps using satalites. The reason I say this is that when tweaking those settings I sometime cannot establish a lock for a while. It also seems to be less smooth almost jittery. Also don't tell the faa but I turned the phone on in airplane mode in an airplaine and could not get a gps fix at all so it really leads me to believe these phones must suffer the same issue the old ones do with not getting gps locks as quickly as we hope. This also makes the GPS speedometer useless as I cannot see how fast my plane is going. LOL.

Can it be done? I'd love to see a Fancy Widget theme where it was just the weather portion and a transparent background, that would be amazing :) How do you even go about theming fancy Widget?
[Droid Incredible Themes and Apps] Stoney 666:
I can theme the widget but exactly how for you want it? It's gunna have a pretty big space over the weather.... I can also remove all the backgrounds including the clock and just have the floating sun/moon and weather info.... let me know.
[Droid Incredible Themes and Apps] BaronofBlood:
Just that highlighted portion would be perfect, with the tranparent background as shown, thanks :D
[Droid Incredible Themes and Apps] Stoney 666:
you just need to resize it with LPP. the widget thinks the images are still there so it still its normal size.

But I don't have Launcher Pro Plus or ADW launcher, as you can see from the gui, I'm running MIUI
[Droid Incredible Themes and Apps] Stoney 666:
the verison of fancy widget you have has the weather over the time? i could do the same to yours if you send it to me, but still the same problem, your gunna have empty space under the weather. so depends on how high you want the weather to float. middle with mine or up high with yours...
[Droid Incredible Themes and Apps] BaronofBlood:
I'd like it to be high like mine, I have the fancy widget thats on the Market
[Droid Incredible Themes and Apps] Stoney 666:
post yours or send it to me and i'll do it for you. if you post it, just put it in a zip cuz you cant post apk's for some reason. or pm me for my email.
[Droid Incredible Themes and Apps] BaronofBlood:
There you go, had no problem uploading an .apk
[Droid Incredible Themes and Apps] Stoney 666:
the apk you posted is like the one i posted. it's not the one on your screen shot.
[Droid Incredible Themes and Apps] BaronofBlood:
It's the .apk installed on my phone, I'm not quite sure what you want then I guess :confused:

edit: If you're referring to the one on my phone being transparent that's because Fancy Widget gives you the option to make the background transparent.
[Droid Incredible Themes and Apps] Stoney 666:
the clock you have on the screen shot has the weather over the time. the one you sent me looks like the regular sense clock with the weather under the time. do you have the paid version? cuz i think with the pro version, you are able to change the clock format. Sorry!!!!!

i'll try one more method that might work.... i'll get back at ya in a bit.
[Droid Incredible Themes and Apps] BaronofBlood:
I have the free version, it came stock with the weather at the top and not the bottom :)
[Droid Incredible Themes and Apps] Stoney 666:
i was able to put the moon/sun higher but the info isn't budging. i think it's gunna be an xml edit and i haven't figured out how to mess with those yet... but heres what i got so far. maybe someone who knows xml can finish it.... sorry!!
