Still doesn't work here.

before I succeed once in Win7-32, than never again.

So moved to macOS X 6.3, succeeed once aas well, then never, same like Windows.

At Windows XP phone never connected :confused:.
[Epic 4G General] leatherneck6017:
Try a different usb port. If that still doesn't work then...unplug/replug phone, if you can at least get to the part where it says it's waiting for the phone to reconnect then just unplug/replug again at that point. That *should* force the computer to re-recognize the phone. Good luck!
[Epic 4G General] aliaselchore:
I would just just say do it on a mac
[Epic 4G General] lazydazed:
I just went through this yesterday... unplug your phone and plug it right back in and immediately "hit any button"... don't let any more than 5seconds pass upon replug..

[Streak 5 Accessories] marvin02:
Easecase will make cases to your custom measurements for any phone. The reviews I have read of their work have been very good. I ordered on for my Streak that is large enough for it to fit with the Otterbox Impact case on.

When I get the case and the phone I will do a write up.

I usually ignore this stuff except that it seems this particular bug comes down on apps from third party markets....not like it can actually send our stuff anywhere (no phone) but it might if you are tethered.
[Nook Color General] zendrummer74:
So I've been roaming around the NC's system directories comparing the way the NC is layed out with Ubuntu, FreeBSD and OS X.

A couple observations:

1) I can't figure out where the NC stores the wifi access point SSIDs and keys. Does anyone know this?

2) I noticed that all of the configuration files seem to exist for tethering the NC and having it act as a WiFi card, though I can't for the life of me come up with a reason to do that. Has anyone played with this before I delve into it?

My hope I that this thread will become a source of NC wifi info.
[Nook Color General] GMPOWER:
1. /system/etc/wifi/wpa_supplicant.conf

2. no real reason to want to tether off of the NC that I can think of. I have tethered from my phone to the NC, but can't say I have any reason to try the other way at this point. In the future who knows what we might be able to do with this.

Looking through the file system you will see that B&N really did not try very hard to build their own specific file system, a ton of the vanilla android system is left behind. One day when we are able to have our own custom ROM's I would think that a ton of this extra stuff will be cut out to improve speed and battery life.
[Nook Color General] zendrummer74:
Thanks for the response.

I've had fun poking around the OS file system.

The /system/etc/wifi/wpa_supplicant.conf file is the template file, not the actual file where the wifi settings are stored.

The actual file where wifi settings are stored is at /data/misc/wifi/wpa_supplicant.conf

The template file shows that an example network configuration for a WEP WiFi Access Point would look like:

network={
ssid="actual_access_point_name_goes_here"
key_mgmt=NONE
auth_alg=OPEN SHARED
wep_key0=somehexidecimalkeythatis40charslong
priority=nn ##this is the priority rank in which you have want to connect to a wifi access point with more than one SSID is in range

The network configuration for a Ad Hoc WEP WiFi Access Point would look like:

network={
ssid="actual_access_point_name_goes_here"
key_mgmt=NONE
auth_alg=OPEN SHARED
wep_key0=somehexidecimalkeythatis40charslong
priority=nn ##this is the priority rank in which you have want to connect to a wifi access point with more than one SSID is in range
mode=1

The network configuration for a WPA WiFi Access Point would look like:

network={
ssid="actual_access_point_name_goes_here"
psk=somehexidecimalkeythatis40charslong
priority=nn ##this is the priority rank in which you have want to connect to a wifi access point with more than one SSID is in range

If I understand it correctly, you will need to remount the filesystem in read/write mode in order to pull/edit/push the file from the NC to your computer, edit the file, and then push it back and remount. I'm going to try this next and document the steps.

My whole purpose for this is that I have a long list of WEP, WPA, WPA2 wifi hotspots that I connect to on a regular basis. Typing in the 100+ hex keys for each hotspot is a royal pain without cut/paste. Instead it is just easier to pull down the file, edit it, and then push it back to the NC.
[Nook Color General] TchnclFl:
The reason you'd want to tether the NC to your laptop is if your laptop didn't have built in wifi (I know, I know, what kind of laptop doesn't have wifi?).

Some older laptops don't have wifi, and perhaps the wifi is broken so tethering could be a viable option.

I am in need of a kernel with loop enabled. I am in the newest OTA, if one doesn't exist I could use some help compiling one from the newest source, I have everything I need to do it on my Linux machine I am stuck trying to find which makefile to edit and where the .config file containing CONFIG_DEV_BLK_LOOP is located.

If it matters at all I would much rather compile my own kernel so I can learn something new.

Really!? I am not lazy or dumb, I have gone through a lot of kernel threads and it is not stated wether or not loop is enabled, all I am looking for is a kernel close to stock with loop enabled, come on guys I know someone here knows of one, if not is ANYONE willing to work with me while I learn to make one?
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] laydros:
LOL. I'm on the more technical side, program for a living and have compiled a share of Linux kernels in my life, and I'm not quite sure what you are referring to. Sadly most of the sharper devs pretty much handle these forums in a one-way manner, they put out stuff, but they rarely read other people's posts. There are plenty of people that like to help out, but most of those folks aren't going to know anything about compilation.

Did you ever find or get your Complie to work? I tried for a while to compile the stock Kernel, then gave up.

I have a HTC HD2 and looking for a build that works good with AT&T. The phone I have is from China and is unlocked. I have tried several builds and have issues with 3g on all of them. Any help is greatly appreciated. thanks
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] Agoattamer:
Well this answer is quite easy. You say your phone is from china? Is it a real HD2 or a chinese knockoff? Anyways the chinese knockoffs don't have 3G I believe. And if its a real HD2 only the Telstra T9193 is capable of 3G for ATT. So unless your phone has the Telstra and NextG logos on the back you won't get 3G on ATT with any build.

[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] SamsungVibrant:
How about this. Parents don't give your children cell phones. If they must have one for safety reasons, give them a free cell phone that only makes 911 calls.

I'm sorry, but I consider any parent who gives any child or teen a cell phone as a bad parent. There is absolutely no reason a child or teen needs a cell phone, even if they earned the money themselves. If I have a child one day, my child will need to be moved out of the home, paying their own rent, their own car insurance, their own bills, then they can get themselves a cell phone that makes more than just 911 calls.

You can also bet for sure I would know my child is visiting online forums and I would know what they are posting. Too many children and teens have free reign these days, they do what they want, when they want, without any consequences.

And NO, making a deal with your children that they get straight A's shouldn't be a reason to get them a phone either. You're child should do their best in school to succeed in life and to gain knowledge, to became cultured, open minded and to learn, not to have mommy and daddy buy them things. Since when did bargaining with children become ok?

BTW, I initially misread, it appears this child above took the phone without their parents permission.

[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] SamsungVibrant:
Actually I had an excellent upbringing. Never got into drugs, never been in trouble with the law, I have an impressive education, and I'm an ethical and moral person.

I pay over a grand every two months for my LADWP bill, and several hundred dollars for gas, plus several types of insurance, phobe bill, tv, etc. If I ever have a punk child that thinks living under my roof is free, then yes, they will be kicked out of my home, they will learn a lesson. Let him/her go into the real world and realize that even water from the faucet comes with a price tag.

BTW everyone in my family was raised the same way, and my family is extremely successful, with many doctors and attorneys.

Except for my uncle who should have NEVER had a child, because he does not know how to parent. My cousin who is currently 17 does what he wants when he wants, without his father saying anything to him. He was kicked out of high school for selling drugs and nearly killing another student who overdosed from drugs he sold. This little punk cousin of mine sleeps in until 3 pm and stays out all hours of the night. He has been living that life for about a year now.

Took me about a month but I got that little prick straightend out. Told him that I am notifying the authorities that he is under age and not attending school despite his fathers wishes, and yes I was very serious. With the permission of his father I had his cell phone canceled, his computer is gone, he is no longer allowed to stay out at nights. He is now enrolled in his local community college in a program designed for high school drop outs, I told him he has no other option but to enroll, no negotiating. I have communication with the coordinator of the program and I'm keeping tabs on him.

Please don't tell me what is good parenting and what is bad parenting. He was a disgrace to our family and I told it to his face. If you want to act like an adult then you will be spoken to that way, you will get your ass out of the house and pay your own bills, and if it means you need to learn a hard lesson or two, then so be it.

Any man and woman can make a baby, but not everyone knows how to parent.
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kingkurry:
Dude... no offense but you sound like a douche bag... please don't have kids. There are plenty of reasons for teenagers to have smart phones. I for one attend a lot of competitions and events for school clubs and teams. The ability to look up information in a bus, navigate through a city, and stay in touch with chaperons and other students is vital during such situations. For example, this summer I went to Nashville for the FBLA national conference to compete in Network Design. I used my phone to navigate around the city, stay in touch with chaperons and the students, as well as find vital information, such as where you can get food without being mugged. etc.

But in all honesty, the OP is an idiot. Not for stealing his mom's phone, but for stealing his mom's phone and screwing it up.... The vibrant is one of the hardest phones to get into an unusable state...
