no im not a troll and no im not a noob im trying 2 really do this @ the moment im seeing if i can run .deb files so i can use the linux version i knw it probably wont work but dont u think its worth a try 2 get chrome over 2 android.
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] emuneee:
I'm no expert but you probably have to recompile Chromium for Android / ARM devices... I doubt you can just download the binary and execute it.
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] joenathane:
Couple of things, first and foremost, the built in web browser in Android is already based off of webkit, same as chrome, so why port chrome? Second programs that run on android are java based, google only just released a native code sdk. Three to get Chrome working in any sort of correct fashion on Android would take a massive effort and probably a rewrite of most of the code.

The fact that you renamed the file to apk and tried to run it shows that you are a noob.

I'm still considering the Viewsonic G tab and have another question. With this being a wi-fi only tab do you all find it fairly easy to find a hot spot when you are out and about?

Thanks!

[G Tablet General] MasterColdSoul:
Most people I imagine have wifi in there primary use spots (home, work, friends, normal hangouts) and those that don't have a phone that can become a wifi hotspot.

I personally don't have wifi but my phone is a G2 so I will always have wifi available.
[G Tablet General] XANAVirus:
I'd recommend getting one of those auto-connection things for the GTablet.

For instance, I've got WeFi (for the autoconnection :) ) and Easy WiFi (so I can manage through the web the various provider WiFi hotspots).

Also got 'em on my Nexus One and it works great here too (unlike the Nexus One, the GTablet does not remember my WiFi connection preferences AT ALL... But maybe that's just my particular one. Easy WiFi works great around this).
[G Tablet General] RuncaProfundus:
I just use my G2 for tethering and lots of places in my city offer hotspots so im golden. Depending on your phone you may or may not already have the option. I know I had to flash a custom ROM(CyanogenMod) before I had the feature.

Hope you figure something out

[Android Apps and Games] webbyz:
Hello All,

I am relatively new to the Android Scene but I have been messing with my Epic, rooting it, running custom ROMs, and absolutely loving it! So I have decided that I want to move our entire company over to Android phones from WM6 phones.

One thing that I am looking for that I was never able to find for our WM devices was a way to pull a Company Phone Book out to our phones Automatically OTA.

We have about 140 lines on our cell phone pool currently, and when we have a new person start, we send out an email telling everyone that a new person has started and to add their number to their contact list manually. Most people just ignore the email and never do it, so they never actually get the new contact on their phone. So I am looking for a way to automate the process for our people.

We currently have a Public Folder on our Exchange Server that is called "Company Cell Phone List" that holds the contacts for all of our phones with the Employee Name/Number/Picture.

When a new employee starts, I create a new account on the Exchange Server, and log into that users account in Outlook, and Copy/Paste the contacts from the Public folder to their "Contacts" folder and sync the phones OTA with the Exchange Server and move the contacts that way initally.

I know with BlackBerry you can push address lists to the phones through a BES. With WM I never could find a solution, and with Android I am hoping there might be something that I can use to accomplish this.

Is there an App out there that can actually sync this information to the phones automatically instead of having the end users add the contacts manually, or me having to log into 140 outlook accounts and add a new number to their "Contacts" folder each time someone new starts?

Any help would be greatly apperciated. And thanks for letting me be long winded ;-)

HTC seams to support this with their sense cusomized mail app
[Android Apps and Games] webbyz:
Is there somewhere that you saw that posted? I am looking at going to Droid 2 Phones wth Verizon so trying to find something that will work on that Froyo platform.
[Android Apps and Games] baram:
you should be able to set up a company google account for this. have all the work phones sync to the contacts backed up on google's server and it'll pull them automatically as changes are made. you can also edit the contact list manually on their site somewhere. not the most secure / professional but it's the simplest method I know of.
[Android Apps and Games] webbyz:
Yeah I thought of that method too. At that point I could just set up a common Exchange account and have all of the phones pull from that account and we would have a little more control over it.

I just don't want people sending E-Mail's out of any account other than their specified Exchange Mailbox. So putting a second E-Mail account that has anything with our Company Name associated with it is kind of risky being that there is not much accountability if someone is to send out a non work appropriate E-Mail.

Just too risky to me.

So if there is something Server Side we can do I would do it, else if there actually was an App that could tunnel down to those public shares OTA would be the best.

But again, a common account is a good idea in theory, just worried that someone would send something from the account and cause me all kinds of headaches :(
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Okeynwachie:
ok so i know how to do things on my vibrant but dont really know exactly how the phone does things (basically im a directions follower) so im going to try to be as precise as possible

my phone has been rooted for a while and ive been experimenting with a bunch of roms. i decided to flash TWs nero v3 w/voodoo and i was pretty sure id stick with that for a while but some of my games started having issues so i decided to flash the newest axura. now something told me that i needed to disable voodoo first and there is usually a voodoo submenu in CW recovery but there wasnt so i figured it was disabled already

so i flashed it and everything was going well untill my screen went blank

now my phone acts like there is no battery in it

ive tried any button combinations with charger in (wall or computer) or out.

no matter what my screen stays blank...plz help

im not exactly in a situation to just buy a new phone. :confused:
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] chikin:
Unplug the phone from the charger. take your battery out for at least 15 seconds. plug the phone to your computer via usb. while holding both vol+/-, not power, put the battery back in. you should be in download mode.

use odin to flash a stock rom.

this all should work if you have the samsung drivers installed on your comp.

[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] AgentFour20:
Ive seen alot of these post lately and all were on nerov3 .
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] chikin:
Well I guess that your best bet would be modifying the usb charger with resistors. as stated in the link that jewbrad suggested. A similar thing happened to my phone when I tried to go back to stock from nero, but instead of a blank screen, I got a small icon of a pc and phone with a triangle in between. The method that I posted did the trick. Maybe you should try it again and check odin to see if it recognizes your device, even if the phone might look like its off.
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] AustinKnight45:
Have you tried having odin open on you pc and loaded with eugene's froyo that doesnt brick then with your phone turned off(pull the battery then put it back in) now hold the volume keys up and down at the same time then plug your usb cord that is plugged into your pc into your phone this should get you into downlod mode. If this workes flash it and let odin do its thing after its done running it will reboot and go to a recovery screen then it will try to boot up ounce you see the i9000 screen you can pull the battery again and get it back into download mode the same way you did before and then flash the stock vibrant rom tar file and pit. I dont know if this will work but it cant hurt I know how it is not having your phone working so hope this helps

CES is upon us (well soon) and I will be attending the conference along with about 300,000 others. However, I doubt there are many others with the intention of coming back with a bit of honey as I am.

Motorola will supposedly have their honeycomb tablet there, among other manufacturers I'm sure. What would be the most surefire way to bring back some bits and pieces of the software for us to tear apart?

My plan upfront was to create a zip file of the entire /system partition and then upload it to a server. Chances are whatever I do, I'll have to do it fast. If I'm crowding a device, it will probably look suspicious. What are the most surefire ways for me to pull system data off of the device, compress it, and upload it in a usable format? Obviously a nandroid backup is out of the equation, as is anything that will take more than 5 minutes to accomplish. I think I could probably upload the file in the background of the device, so the time I have will be for making the copy.

So what do you think? Any software I should look into that will help the cause? Anything else that I might be overlooking? Also, totally into some feedback here if anyone thinks this is just a dumb idea to begin with.

tl;dr: whats the quickest way to archive an entire android system partition and upload it to a server using tools only available on the device?
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] chrisrotolo:
dude, you GO buddy! just don't get caught huh?

:D
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] Mills00013:
ok, so I looked into what this is going to take and I think i have a game plan. Someone please step up and tell me if this is out of line:

Assuming I can get to actually play with the device: download a terminal emulator. I should have the apk prepared and ready to go on my own personal server along with a few backup versions.

Download a binary from my server that allows zip access. I should be able to use gzip or bzip2, both are in busybox, so that might be another step. Assuming that I get the binaries for those, the next step would be creating a /bin/ file in the /data/ directory. (I am not sure if this will work. I need to do more research, but I think that would be in the path.) I would have to do this all from /data/ because obviously, I wont have root access (I think... this would be so much easier if moto decided to leave su on the phone :) )

Run gzip or bzip2 on the /system/ partion, saving to /sdcard/. Using the browser on the phone, upload this file to mediafire or similar filesharing service. Or, better yet, bluetooth it to another personal device nearby. My estimations say that would take about 15 minutes though to complete the transfer.

Anyone see any flaws?
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] chrisrotolo:
Im kinda of a turb0 n00b but I love this idea, hopefully superuser is on the device, the place will be packed, just find a buddy or two to help distract the other demo hosts. Hopefully it will be crowded enough where you can just dissappear if something goes wrong.

I love the idea and I hope it works. Sorry I couldn't offer any technical advice.

if they suspect something just start rebooting the device hopefully to cover it up, maybe load something on your server where you can type a command and hopefully wipe any logs/traces of tampering etc.

man, I hope this works!
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] Mills00013:
Last year, Moto's booth had a good distraction vs employee ratio. They had a stage set up in the middle of the booth with performers doing amazing juggling and stupid human tricks. Distracted almost everyone. Should give me my five minutes.

The only thing I'm worried about is that the tablet will be under glass and not user handleable. We will see what happens.
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] DesireC:
I'd say try to background everything unobtrusively so you can leave and still have it running, then check mediafire frequently so that Moto doesn't have enough time to find what you've done and issue a takedown notice. It's pretty easy to mount an ftp server in Windows, so once it's done uploading you could whip out a laptop and download it directly to your server. I would also like to offer my services for mirroring. If you need access to my server from CES, PM me and I'll give you an account with r/w access to a separate directory (can't be too careful) so you can upload.
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] DesireC:
Oh, and if it has GApps, just download Astro and zip /system into /sdcard or wherever, then bluetooth it to yourself.
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] Mills00013:
Will astro handle a zip operation? And do you think its capable of zipping the entire system partition?

And even if it didnt have gapps, I could grab the astro .apk and have it ready on my server when I get there.

That would be WAY easier than downloading the binaries from busybox and running all of this through CLI (although less fun :) )

I think I need to find a more graceful way to get the file onto a server once I've dumped it. Know of any ftp applications?

On a semi-related note, there are announcements left and right about honeycomb from other manufacturers besides Moto that will have goods at CES. that means that if the moto tabs are locked down or my process fails there, I can try with other vendors!
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] ErOR22:
If at CES they have a open WiFi network you could use a FTP service on your phone and dump data onto there, so that way you can stay untraceable.

I wish I could help you with ziping the system or whatever but I have no experience with Android....yet :D.

Good Luck!
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] dr3:
If there is such a high level of interest why doesn't moto just make it available?
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] Mills00013:
Well, bad news. According to Moto's PR, they wont have the tablet on display at this year's CES. It's just "not ready".

That is not to say, however, that there will not be other Honeycomb tablets available. I still have my tools prepared and I'm ready to get what ever I can. Project Honeypot is still a go!

[Android Themes] toosurreal01:
Choose layout > custom then in the editor go to time and choose the following:

Hour (12h) Static Text Minute (2 digits)

The static is under the "Misc" section in the editor and allows you to type in any text you want, for this instance I'm using it to display the colon ( : )

Let me know if you have any other questions!
[Android Themes] Fun With Drugs:
I got as far as the clock part. Getting it in digital format.

It's the layout and size of everything that messes up.

When I try to make the time bigger, as shown in your screenshot, it ends up overlapping and cutting off the minutes.

Can you give me a rundown of exactly how you did yours? D: thanks.
