[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] 3722:
You should read the whole thread for the usb-fix

If I remember correctly you should use "cat /sys/class/mmc_host/mmc1/mmc1:*/cid" (without quotes) command from the terminal emulator.

The terminal emulator in your case will be the substitute for the fastboot, so everything is done via the former.

If you click the link to the quote, you'll see that there are number of people who got it sorted using this method. So just be patient and do the reading.
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Blubba10:
Ive got same problem, but have fastboot access.. Can I use regular terminal in windows then?
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] 3722:
Well, you can use it to find the CID ("fastboot oem boot"), but the other commands in the guide quoted above are for a terminal emulator and are not the same as the ones used with fastboot. So in order not to get confused I recommend you to just use a terminal emulator, it's not harder than fastboot.
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Blubba10:
Well, i figured out that one on my own.. At least I learn something of this.. Anyway, when i try to execute first command in emulator I just get up "cannot create, directory nonexistent. Ive tripple checked the commandlines.. What could be wrong??

[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bronts:
Well I followed all the instructions, could get temp root access and flash a modified mtd0.img (which had the correct CID and Rom version) but still no USB. I tried it several times over and can't get anywhere. The hardware must be cactus! Time to throw it over a cliff !!

I have no issue at all with you wanting help, or even 1 on 1. Don't care, I help alot of people. My only issue was with you posting this in general. That's why I said please. Not a big deal, I just don't like seeing the general sub section get cluttered up with simple q&a threads.

[G Tablet General] Dknyc79:
Is it possible that we will be able to get our hands on any of these recalled tablets at a discount anywhere, maybe from the viewsonic outlet website?

I have an archos 101 that I will be returning (mainly after reading all the work done by XDA on the gtablet) and I am looking to pick up a Gtablet. The only issue I have is that I don't want to pick one up today for $379 at Sears and then have them available at a deep discount some where else next week. I am ok if Viewsonic stops supporting it because I know there will be community support for a while.

Any suggestions on what I should do? Take the plunge or wait for a little?
[G Tablet General] Reginhild:
If you see one at a discounted price, you'll be getting an excellent deal!
[G Tablet General] roebeet:
The problem with Staples is that they are not putting them up for clearance - they are sending them back to the vendor, even the floor models.

SEARS Outlet has been a great site for us and I would suggest that you continue scanning it every morning. But, the problem is that the chances of seeing a device near you are slim. I have never found one less than 45 minutes away from me and I've only see ones within a reasonable driving distance (1.25 hours) about three times in the last month.
[G Tablet General] xenx:
I haven't seen one closer than a 12hr drive, so consider yourself lucky. I settled for the $350 sale price.
[G Tablet General] Dknyc79:
I haven't seen one on the sears outlet site at all for weeks now. When I saw it the first time I started researching and and came across this site. Then I knew I had to have one but by the time I realized that it was too late. Any chance that they will start popping up on other sites for sale after the recall?
[G Tablet General] roebeet:
Always check at ~9AM or 10AM ET each morning. By midday ET, whatever was there is usually gone.
[G Tablet General] rushless:
Roeby, based on Sears discussion, the Gtablet is no longer being treated as a standard product where they triage and maybe sell as refurb. This process costs Sears money and then they have to wait for compensation from the supplier. Much cheaper for Sears to simply return the product as defective. Some may slip through, but only if the product is not scanned and falls through the cracks (anything is possible).

We seem to already have apparent evidence that Sears is sending returns back (or storing for a mass return). The return rate is absurdly high, but not too many available in outlets.
[G Tablet General] Dknyc79:
I see that office depot has the gtablet for $369 in store. Does anyone think that there will be a price drop after Christmas?
[G Tablet General] Bad@ssGtab:
It doesnt sound like Sears is following the path of others....

They still units in the stores for sale and not a word about a recall.

I picked up 2 today for Xmas gifts... 379.99 + tax + plus 5X rewards points...

Viewsonic cases were 5.99...

I think this Tablet rocks... I use mine everyday and it's 95% rock solid...

Vegan Beta 3.... With everything including the kitchen sink installed.

If anyone hasn't used Touchdown Pro and has a need, GET IT! It makes this Tablet

rock!

If I could get the VPN to connect to my work's system it would be perfect!
[G Tablet General] scottm424:
Bad@ss,

I returned my Gtab last weekend for an exchange and found out that they are now $349 although they are showing $379 on the website.
[G Tablet General] Rayan:
I still keep mine and enjoy it every day after I installed the Vegan ROM. It really works great. I don't see any hardware problem at all, just some fixable software glitches.

I can't wait to run Honeycomb on the gTab though!

I paid $379.99 minus a 10% "family & friends day" discount!

Cheers,

Rayan
[G Tablet General] bobtran:
Personally I suspect that the only real issue is the less than satisfactory stock UI and the fact that you can use it without purchasing a contract from a wireless carrier.

Even the smallest amount of tweaking (Root, LauncherPro, market and flash "Super Thread works" ) of even the stock OS yields a very responsive and user friendly device.

That said I will be watching for a second Gtab at a discount but I suspect that those who have it will keep it. If I can make this thing perform then anyone with a little time and willingness can do so also.

g Tablet Manufacturing Defect

Greetings, I have a gtablet and 3 days to return it to Sears.

If the product is being returned by Staples why should I NOT

want to return it?

I also notice that the Scheduled Dec 19, 2010

ADOBE FLASH update has NOT occured.

Listen, Thanks for all the help - I appreciate it

//ji
[G Tablet General] johni58:
Greetings, this may be something and may be nothing.

Just FYI –

I talked to Mike at Viewsonic support on 20101220 3:34p PST.

He advises that Staples had an in store warranty conflict and no manufacturing defect exists with the gtablet. The update scheduled for 20101219 is posted and done so in such a way that some folks see it auto-download with WIFI and some will not for approx 24 to 48 hours.

Mike also advises that the Adobe Flash update IS NOT part of the latest update however he says it is still in the works and will be updated soon.

I am still contemplating whether to return mine or not. I have had it for 27 days and it has been absolutely fabulous and beyond my expectations less the FLASH player.

[G Tablet General] Virtual Pariah:
Doesn't this speak for itself?

If it's fabulous, keep it and wait for flash.
[G Tablet General] johni58:
A million Thanks -

Well VP, I always like to get an expert opinion before I proceed and you have certainly provided that, hence - I am very appreciative. Thanks //ji
[G Tablet General] kylelipp:
What @rushless said is correct just checked searsoutlet.com and they had a G tablet for sale @ $279 but apparently it's only available for pick up and the "nearest store" was in Cupertino. But I called one of my local sears and they said they would have a good discount on open-box items. Of course that answer will vary because instore someone told me that the returns if they were like new they would just resell them with a 10% discount.

Check the searsoutlet.com between 9 and 10 am and you may find a good price for one.
[G Tablet General] dknyc:
Thanks. The outlet is great but the closest I've seen was a 2 1/2 hour drive. Does anyone know if they will ship it between stores? Does anyone know what viewsonic will be doing with all the returned units? They all should be in good condition and even if they update the software they still can't sell them as new? I was kind of holding out for all those returned items to show up for sale somewhere online.

I read a lot of post and cant seem to find solution for my MMS issue.

It is strange that I can not send or receive MMS on stock build or custom LeeDrOiD_HD_V1.2 build. Let me assure you that my settings are 100% correct.

I always get generic network failure error :eek:

But when I flash build Core_Cell_Desire_HD_UPDATE_V1.4 and Android Revolution HD 1.9.2 Full my MMS working like charm, with the same settings :confused:

I think that mr. Sergio76 and Mike1986 done some tweaks on MMS configuration and solve problem with MMS messages.

Any solution what can be done or is there any patch to solve this issue?

Tnx 4 help and take care U all ;)

[myTouch 3G Slide Android Development] Carnivore9:
which of the features of sense couldn't you remove?

edit: second question, does the facebook app let you sync the facebook phonebook or is it just the online directory?
[myTouch 3G Slide Android Development] MusicMan374:
I couldn't change the notification bar without making it glitch up, I'm still working on that. Also for some reason in certain htc apps, like contacts and settings, their theme still shows up for buttons. Basically, occasionally you'll see an occasional blue button or something, rather than the greenslide ones, but for almost everything it's themed. Like the dialer is still totally htc, as well as the contacts app for example. I will probably spend some time tonight working on getting it more completely themed, first priority is the notification bar, since that is only barely themed. When I get more work done on it I will post a flashable zip that will just replace the things I changed so that you don't have to go through a whole new wipe and reflash and resetup again. As for your facebook question, it syncs to your contacts but differently. You can't use the market facebook to sync, you have to use Facebook for MyTouch, which is built in. Then it links facebook friends to your contacts through the contacts app. You can also manually link facebook friends to your contacts by pressing link. When I'm done with this I may also port blackslide, or whatever the really black one that miguel ported is.

As for the dialer and other htc apps, I may be able to theme up settings, but probably not the dialer, it would screw it up to replace it with the stock android one I'm pretty sure.

I'll post a new full rom as well as an update zip when I get more work on it done tonight :D

This sounds (and looks) very cool. It's just what the CR_OTA needs. I think I'll flash and try this out. I'll report back and let Arayray know if you know what you're doing, as this is still Espresso.

Cheers, MusicMan.
[myTouch 3G Slide Android Development] MusicMan374:
Thanks! I still have a bit of work to do with the notification bar and possibly other HTC apps to make them more reminiscent of the theme, I'll post an update probably later today
[myTouch 3G Slide Android Development] Hayzie:
Looking forward to it. This is great work.

Suggestions only if you're up for it: only thing I can think of is remove more stock apps. Too many open up on their own and run in the background frequently and are known to drain battery (in all roms). Other than that, I don't even need to tell you anything else. You got it pretty much covered.

I'm thinking this should be added to the Rom Bible.
[myTouch 3G Slide Android Development] MusicMan374:
Yeah I may take a shot at that again, but last time I tried that with some of the widgets, sense kept crashing because it couldn't open the widgets. When I froze calendar with titanium the phone wouldn't sleep because calendar sync was on, glitching everywhere. I'll take another shot, maybe remove some of the redundant music apps and include the musicmod app instead. Thanks for the input.

Update for everything else, themed up the browser to be a bit more green with the buttons, rather than the blue. No luck with the dialer, no matter how much I screw with the images it just won't display the images. Also, there is ONE notification icon that is still stock, the rest have been changed to GreenSlide. For whatever reason, the USB data icon is still white w/black background stock icon, you'll know what I'm talking about when I post the update. I just have to work on changing the text color of notification items and it should be ready to upload. I still have not figured out the stock HTC apps themes, I keep editing their individual drawable-mdpi folders, but they aren't effective when I push and reboot. It must be taking them from something else that I haven't found yet. Somehow it's retaining its own theming. I will post the work that I have in a little bit though. I will continue to look for the theming of the stock apps, it must be in some funky location.

[myTouch 3G Slide Android Development] etu_aty:
oh and another thing, since this is a espresso rom i dont know if you guys have all the themes (my modes) but i managed to get them from a thread somewhere and i removed the bubbles in the desktop and the drawer from all of them (i hate those freaking bubbles) if you want me to post them just tell me.. i have bubbles and no bubbles, i think there is 18 themes apk.. so you know, just let me know if you want them n_n
[myTouch 3G Slide Android Development] r0man:
Proper good winzip!
[myTouch 3G Slide Android Development] MusicMan374:
What exactly are you referring to, bubbles? And I didn't remove the themes, so yes they're there. I'm almost finished, just having a bit of trouble finding the XML files that specify the color of the text for the notifications themselves, they are black by default. Once I figure that out I'll upload. Then I'll get some work done hopefully with the stock app theming, that's next.

Back to my self imposed exile.
[myTouch 3G Slide Android Development] MusicMan374:
Oh yeah okay I see. Huh. Well this actually gave me a little bit more context to what I was doing. The default "nest" theme is the one I was actually editing when I was editing framework-res and such. If you change the mymode theme, it modifies a lot of the changes I made. But if you change it back to nest, it goes back. Interesting. This might actually help a lot with the issues I'm having with stock HTC apps.
[myTouch 3G Slide Android Development] MusicMan374:
Posted the first revision, check the changelog for what I changed. It looks a lot better than it did before, way more like greenslide. Still have to get the stock apps themed though, still figuring out that MyModes stuff.
[myTouch 3G Slide Android Development] MusicMan374:
I don't believe that there is ROM based off of stock with a fully ported GreenSlide theme, do you? Last I checked there was SlideReloaded with a couple of full theme ports, and of course, the MyModes themes, but those hardly count, because they don't modify framework-res.apk OR services.jar. Then there are the random ones lying around of "no bloatware" roms more or less thrown into the kitchen. There are MAYBE 4, at my estimation.

The only two fully functional basic ROMs we have to work with are cyanogenmod and CR_Mod. The rest all have issues. Arayray's ROM might be original as well, not cm based, can't remember, but other than that there really isn't much. There aren't many devs making ROMs for the Slide. So, we work with what we have. Regardless of the many variations on these ROMs, they are never the same exact thing. Some of them are kind of pointless, like the no bloatware ones, but the themed ones are actually useful, since there aren't many of them out there, they are different tastes. So you surely can see how I don't see the reasoning behind your statement when it is fairly plainly obvious that this is not the exact same thing as 5 other ROMs in this section, as you have said. That is of course, unless you're inept, in which case I'm sorry for your lack of basic perception.
[myTouch 3G Slide Android Development] migueltherocker:
So if this is just a theme, shouldn't it be in the Themes section?
[myTouch 3G Slide Android Development] Hayzie:
It's deodexed and tweaked. It's more than a theme.
[myTouch 3G Slide Android Development] HebrewToYou:
Is it? It looks like 90% theme, 10% fluff.
[myTouch 3G Slide Android Development] Hayzie:
k.........
[myTouch 3G Slide Android Development] MusicMan374:
No there are not many tweaks. It's mostly a theme, yes.

But hey, Miguel, your ported cm6.1 themes are in the ROM section, why aren't those in the theme section? Those don't have any tweaks, last time I checked. Our "themes" section is pretty much all mymodes and apps, I was following precedent by SlideReloaded and your ported themes by posting here. And also, as I said in the OP, I am hoping to make more of my own tweaks to it, as I learn more about this stuff.
[myTouch 3G Slide Android Development] Hayzie:
I call removing unneeded apps and deodexing more than theming. It's enhancing the rom. In fact, I don't call it theming it all. It just so happens to be heavily themed.

The green is nice, but I could care less about it. Plus, MusicMan plans to do more with it so it's obviously a work-in-progress rom.

Other people release some roms and they just think they're the only ones who can do it.
[myTouch 3G Slide Android Development] MusicMan374:
Thank you Hayzie! :D
[myTouch 3G Slide Android Development] migueltherocker:
I built from source with more than "tweaking", so yes, it belonged in the dev section.

Removing apps is as simple as removing an .apk file, and deodexing is literally a "click and wait" procedure. Hardly development.

Also, how can you call deodexing "enhancing a ROM"? It makes it slower. Not by much, but still slower. The only reason to deodex is to theme.
[myTouch 3G Slide Android Development] guitarist5122:
You all provide me entertainment :)

I will have to agree that removing an app or two and slapping a new one in plus deodexing isnt much of a new rom. Hell, i did that to cr_mod back before cyanogen could give me working bluetooth and didnt call it a rom.

But to give credit, the theme implimented into the sense ui does make this a valid rom. We dont have alot of original roms for the slide, mostly themed roms. This is one more. So thank you for your work, even though i will never go back to 2.1
[myTouch 3G Slide Android Development] migueltherocker:
Wow dude... you used my add on pack for the icons and stuff without asking me?
