[Legend General] janarp:
[HOW-TO] ADB for Dummies(How-To Learner's Guide)
[Legend General] MontseCat:
:confused: even with this guide I didn't succed!!!

What I done is just temporary root with visionary then run again the adb but remains the same,

sorry I don't see where lost!!
[Legend General] nae64:
In the following I will assume a Windows-PC:

1. Restart your phone to start from scratch, make sure 'TempRoot on boot' (or sth along this line...) is NOT checked

2. Run the crackin.bat, which you put (along with all other files in that download) into the directory containing the adb.exe (which is, at least for me, the platform-tools directory)

3. when it fails (it will), TempRoot using VISIONary, leaving everything unchecked (no System Read Write, even if that seems like a good idea)

4. on your PC, go to a Terminal (Windowsbutton + R, enter 'cmd' without quotes, press enter) , navigate to the folder crackin.whatever is in using the cd command like in my following example, but with the correct, full path

Example: 'cd "C:\\Programm Files\Android\andorid-sdk\platform-tools"' (again, without the single quotes (preserve doublequotes))

5. in that same Terminal Window, enter 'adb shell' (again, without quotes). The prompt should change to a dollar sign. Then enter 'su' (you know, without quotes...), and when the prompt changes to a '#', the TempRoot was successful and we can resume. Make sure to leave that Terminal open, you can use it again when rooting.

6. On a Windos System (32bit preferred) run the RUU.something.exe and follow these steps.

7. follow the main rooting guide, in which you will have to open a Terminal Window in the directory you unzipped. This is done with the same method I described above (opening cmd, 'cd' command)

I hope this makes it more clear =)

Edit: btw, this is a full guide, feel free to pick out the stuff you need, because I really did not understand what your problem was =) as a rooting guide I used this: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=746454
[Legend General] janarp:
i belive u have same folder names like me...

first i connect my phone with pc then i open command (start and type cmd)

cd C:\android-sdk-windows-1.1_r1\tools

then

adb shell

and then

[Legend General] MontseCat:
I got it su!!!

I succed!!

Let me one step forward and see if I am able to downgrade now!!

Thaks both!! i'll back
[Legend General] MontseCat:
Now new trouble

USB driver error

Wich HC Sync should use?

The last one or previous 2.04 ??

Or?

thanks

ps. one more detail. I saw in one treah that hboot is relevant an looked for mine.

I currenty have HBOOT-1.00.0000
[Legend General] nae64:
I had HBOOT 1.000 too, that was my problem to, but it seems to be okay anyway, at least my phone is not bricked =)

Firmware has to be 1.31. I think I read somewhere that you have to use an older version of HTC Sync, but this is better answered by someone who actually has used Windows...
[Legend General] janarp:
You MUST have HTC Sync version 2.0.33 not a newer version

Did u downgrade successfully too? If yes then follow this rooting guide... http://theunlockr.com/2010/06/07/how-to-root-the-htc-legend/
[Legend General] MontseCat:
Sorry!

Not yet. I only found the Htc sync version _HTC Legend_HTC_Sync 2.0.40 insted of 2.0.33

When I search in google at htc home page says is 2.0.33 but when you select for donwload it is 2.0.4 Maybe is same driver!!

Then I installed the driver and temporary root with visionary and run the ruu.

the trouble is meanwhyle the ruu is running a message appairs that new usb driver android 1.0 required and installed and when finishes aks for reinitate the pc. I didn't but at the end again error 171 related to de driver.

Beleave me, i tried many times!!! :mad:

so, still looked!

Ps. and the legend is hang with white screen that requires to take out the battery to unhang!!
[Legend General] nae64:
http://www.megaupload.com/?d=4YRG7L87 try this HTC Sync version, the link is from this guide: http://theunlockr.com/2010/06/07/how-to-root-the-htc-legend/

btw, this is the guide that janarp directed you to in his post...
[Legend General] MontseCat:
My God!

Thanks both janarp and you. And apologice, I feel so obses to succed and read many treads and downloaded same files more than once and maybe confused or missed one!! I don't want waste your time.

I apreciate a lot your comments. Just downloading. Come back!

Thanks
[Legend General] MontseCat:
I replaced the htc sync and the resoult it same.

I succed to get temporary root and su, but I am not able to continue.

Error is 171 and this is related to usb driver but... don't understand why. The legend works fine with the htc sync.

I could sincronice

I could read the drive

I am running RUU in charge mode and with the usb enabled.

Really I don't know what I am doing wrong.

The only issue maybe is I am under windows 7

so...
[Legend General] janarp:
im using win 7 too...

try connect ur phone in sync mode then u get drivers too and when u r in sync mode try to install RUU
[Legend General] nae64:
Thats kinda strange, I never even launched HTC Sync once and it worked, but I used the version that this guide provided from the start...

Have you access to another PC? Then maybe try again there... I am sorry I can't help any more specificly, just worked (™) for me.... and I have no idea of win driver stuff anyways...

As a whole lot time passed by now, remember TempRoot ist lost when rebooting you phone, and that you have to do it again if you rebooted... just in case =)
[Legend General] MontseCat:
I tried this morning and fails as well I used different usb port.

I also tried in the ofice computer with win xp profesional but now the trouble was a diferent error. wrong botloader and becomed stoped.

What I'll do it is erase all files and download all once again, and try!!!

but, do you have any idea what could be wrong?

nae64 sais don't have any idea either and he has same botload as me 1.0.0000
[Legend General] MontseCat:
Oh! yes, I already keep it in mine.

I run visionary tempory rood, adb shell and su.

Thanks for advaicing.

One extra question, i saw some available options as pemanent root and so on. I didn't tried to made this working easy and fine, but.... shall that helps in any way? just for getting knoledge
[Legend General] nae64:
Just a question, have you created a goldcard and inserted it for running the RUU? Look at the end of this post, I have linked a tutorial on how to make a goldcard.

janarp also had a HBOOT version > 0.43, that won't be a problem.

And no, make sure nothing in VISIONary is checked when attempting temproot. Also, Permroot is not availible for the Legend, it is primary for the HTC Vision.

But I have found another method to root your Legend: If this one is not working for you, follow the section 'Already OTA updated with HBOOT 1.00' in this thread http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=845512

It should give you root and looks easier, haven't tried it though... instead I asked in the thread if I am correct, and somebody confirmed this (last page of that thread). Also this guide features a tutorial how to create a goldcard on your phone itself in the second post.
[Legend General] janarp:
=) when i start downgrading then i was HBOOT version 1.01 and it still is...
[Legend General] MontseCat:
Ok! I been busy following these instructions, It toke me a lot of concentration...

adb reboot bootloader

...from command prompt. Phone will reboot and find LEGEIMG.zip on your sdcard, copy it into RAM and check it. If you get CID error at this point, then you don't have goldcard. Make your sdcard gold and try again. After successful flash and reboot you may remove LEGEIMG.zip from sdcard. Next step is upgrading of rooted FroYo ROM. Put FroYo update ROM zip to your sdcard and install it via ClockworkMod recovery. You may also flash backed up misc partition after that. Still in recovery mode and hooked with your PC switch to command prompt and restore it back:

I already done adb reboot bootloader, but I don't see cleaarly how I should continue!!! :confused:

Help, once more!
[Legend General] stevenstrike:
i don't understand, i followed your tutorial, install the good version of HTC sync... but when i launch RUU > Writing > Upgrading Signature > Error Blabla, You have Hboot 1.000...

So HOW CAN YOU Downgrade with hboot 1,000 ????
[Legend General] nae64:
It simply worked for me with HBOOT 1.0000 and for janarp with HBOOT 1.001

I do not know what the problem is, do you guys have a goldcard inserted while running the RUU?

Create one according to the second post in this ( http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=845512 ) thread, see if it works. Only thing I can come up with, sorry.

Same goes for MontseCat, I do not even understand your new problem, but you have not answered my question if you have a goldcard in use. The second rooting guide was only intended for use if the first one involving downgrading would not work for whatever reason. That second one is not even tested afaik.
[Legend General] stevenstrike:
Yeah i saw your topic, thanks it worked :D !

I'm now trying to install a froyo rom with a2dp...
[Legend General] MontseCat:
Sorry nae64! I asume that maybe I am doing something wrong but didn`t see what or where.

Yes I am using a Goldcard all time. sorry if didn`t replied this. I tried two different ones.

I will try once more today!! I forgot the usb cable at the office, but will try later. How can I know if the goldcard is fine?

I already downgrade!!!!

Now is time for rooting. I'll back

meanwhile thanks a lot both janarp and you

will continue...
[Legend General] MontseCat:
I finally rooted the legend!!!!

Now is time to update to froyo. But....

1st - I don't want to lose root again!!

2nd - wich is the best RUU to put froyo and be able for nexts updates?

3rd - Many thanks to nae64 and janarp. Without your guide and help never will succed! :)
[Legend General] stevenstrike:
I did it yesterday take this rom : http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=866849

It work good as hell, btw installing a2dp is quite hard (the tutorial has some "blanks"), btw i managed it to work ^^
[Legend General] nae64:
To start, install ROM Manager from the market and use it to install ClockworkMod, it's a recovery system for backing up and restoring roms, which makes the whole thing really easy. Always backup, then flash a new ROM (either the ones ROM Manager shows you, or the ones you put onto your SD-Card), but dont forget to check wipe data and cache (It doesn't wipe the SD, and your phone is restored by Clockwork moments after, so no worries). To start, you can try Cyanogenmod from the ROM Manager menu (its the only ROM you don't have to put on you SD manually, the others just don't work at least for me)
[Legend General] MontseCat:
Great!

I'll try and back!

;)
[Legend General] MontseCat:
OK!

I am back.

Got Rom Manager and installing Clockworkmod

At this point I'll would like to:

- first install Cyanogenmod, but don't see how to do it.

- configure my legend eficiently, I should remove the Goldcard and put my 8gb sd

- install as much as possible apk on sd when able to do it.

so, how should prepare? and where can learn about Rom Manager how works and what can and what can't be done!!

thanks!

P.s I saw in Rom Manager under review updates, that my rom it is not prepared to get updates trougth ota, contact with rom developer!! :)

Also is asking some times for su permision, temporary or permanent... what shall I reply?
[Legend General] MontseCat:
Finally I succed!!!

Rooted my legend and running Android 2.2-1 CyanogenMod that is much better than previous status.

I want to thanks all peple who helped me!!!

Froyo Black Multitouch

If you are on Froyo 2.2.1 you can try the Darkslide version..I am not the developer by any means just passing along the information.The entire Darkslide theme is awesome as well. You should not have to do anything but install this in Clockwork and reboot. Of course I would do a backup first just to be sure you can go back afterwards. If you are on GingerBread do not install this file...

[Gen8 Android Development] gomork:
Ive managed to run Ubuntu Netbook Remix on the A101 in SDE.

By run i mean i see GDM, because the driver for the touchscreen seems not to be working.

What ive did was, i took an image from here: http://cdimage.ubuntu.com/ubuntu-netbook/ports/releases/10.10/release/ and copied everything from the data partition to a new .img file. Also ive copied the modules from the angstrom rootfs.img.

Then just copied over my rootfs.img over the angstrom one and booted.

There seems to be lots of issues, mainly, i guess, because the init script in the initrd should do something, the one from angstrom doesnt.

Also the kernel-log says it cant read the /proc/ filesystem.

I uploaded my rootfs img to rapidshare for you to try for yourselfes, maybe someone can pick up from here and build a really working kernel+initramfs.

Kudos! - You could just try to plug in a usb mouse/keyboard into the usb port - it's usb host (mouse and keyboard work in android)
[Gen8 Android Development] aengelpxl:
I'd love to see some more action with this. A mouse+keyboard should at elast get you access to the desktop and thus, terminal. From there, enabling the touch screen should be within arms reach.

To experiment for myself, could you write together a fool proof (noob proof) guide to get to where you're at?
[Gen8 Android Development] gomork:
i tried that, but it did not work. But that might be because the only Device i have here to test is some wireless usb mouse, which might need some other drivers.

Im currently working on an image with the xserver-xorg-input-evtouch driver built-in. I hope that gets the touchscreen working in X11.

To get started:

Get some Ubuntu.

Install rootstock using: sudo apt-get install rootstock.

Run rootstock:

sudo rootstock --fqdn archos-ubuntu --login ubuntu --password ubuntu --keepimage --imagesize 2G --seed ubuntu-netbook

That one generates an .img file you can copy over your existing rootfs.img.

[Gen8 Android Development] gomork:
Maybe you could try with an imagesize of 3G or another release like karmic.
[Gen8 Android Development] xrado:
i did, my first try was with 2Gb, but didn't finish because it went out of space

then I've tried with 3Gb and stoped as i wrote
[Gen8 Android Development] gomork:
I had that problem too once.. Just trying again might work rootstock seems to be a bit buggy.

A little update: usb-mice work, when the modules are copied in /lib/modules in the image, but only when no computer is connected on the mini-usb port, that was the problem in the first place.

Wlan driver extracted from stock archos android can be loaded too, but i didnt manage to get the firmware to load yet.

Ps: a happy new year to all of you.

[Gen8 Android Development] k1nk33:
Good God, how awesome it'd be to have a USEABLE distro of linux on the 101 or 70. I love using linux (i have linux mint installed on all 3 computers in my home) and it'd be excellent if i could install an embedded version on my tablet, but alas, i'm a plumber not a programmer! So if someone could post a few links or tutorials to get us started ( as i'm sure there are plenty of gen 8 owners who feel the same as me ) it'd be much appreciated.

Q. Does the 101 it have the same hardware components as the 5 it? The reason i ask is that i think there is a working version of ubuntu nbr for this device and im pretty sure it has the same processor as the gen 8 tablets ( cortex arm a8 ).

Q. Would an amature linux geek like me have any hope of porting it over to our device?

Q. Would it work natively or would we need to modify it?

If anyone else has an interest in having ubuntu on their tablet please post as we have to get this bumped up the list of to do's. BTW, thanks to all you guys in advance and best of luck. :-)

that's only running via vnc - that means no drivers for display and touchscreen and unfortunately won't get us much further:(
[Gen8 Android Development] cheefy:
yes it's just a chroot so you can imagine as a ubuntu running with the android kernel. you could try mux the drivers from the angström to the ubuntu kernel and compile the kernel for arm processors this could work, at least integrating ev-touch will help a lot. search for google for ubuntu4arm and you will find some howto.

the reason why i'm outta this is i have not much time at the moment and without a usable on-screen-keyboard (and at the moment there is none) ubuntu is worthless for me on the tablet.
[Gen8 Android Development] k1nk33:
Why o why have there been so few posts on this subject? Are we the only one's interested or is it just too much work to get another version of linux on the gen 8 devices? Really not trying to be rude to any of the developers on xda because i think you guys are awesome, really, but could someone please tell us if this is a worthwhile cause or a pure waste of time and effort. :confused:
[Gen8 Android Development] gomork:
Sorry for my infrequent posting. I really dont have time at the moment to dig further into this. But i do think its possible. Its proven ubuntu can be booted with an android kernel, so all the kernel-level drivers can be taken from archos android. The things that cause issues, are userspace stuff like the missing x.org input driver, as evtouch doesnt seem to work or the wifi driver beeing incompatible with current iwconfig and things like that. All of that might be overcome, but there is quite a bit of work todo.
