[G2 and Desire Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] joemm:
Thats if your gonna temp root with Rage, requires ADB to push the files, which he is trying to avoid using ADB, gfree has been done the way he is trying before.
[G2 and Desire Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ianmcquinn:
I don't believe you can run the gfree program from the sdcard mount point. You should try moving it to the phone itself (try putting it in /data/local directory as instructed in the wiki). That should take care of your permission denied issue.

Also, you may want to copy over all of the other files as listed in the wiki (except for rage since that's not needed for you). The wiki says you need to run the root command after running gfree (it'll set up things like busybox and su for you). You could also do all it manually yourself if you really wanted to...
[G2 and Desire Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kwhkkwhk:
But how do I move it off the sdcard? I tried using es file explorer but it says gfree can't be moved. And I cant mount the internal memory. Thanks for the advice though
[G2 and Desire Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] raitchison:
If you are temp rooted you should be able to remount your file system as read/write, you will need to do this to copy files to the /system path and set permissions.
[G2 and Desire Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kwhkkwhk:
How would I do that?

remounting the file system? i can't find that option in settings...

and by copying the files, is that done through a file manager on the phone?

or on a computer?

thanks so much guys for the help
[G2 and Desire Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] steviewevie:
It shouldn't make a difference if gfree is on /sdcard or not.

To the OP - do you have a # (root) prompt when you are trying to run gfree ? You need that or it won't work. Have you followed exactly the commands that joemm posted, and you didn't get error messages from any of them ?
[G2 and Desire Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kwhkkwhk:
Yes I do have that sign. Everythin works (chmod, su) until the last code which is to run it.
[G2 and Desire Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] steviewevie:
Do "ls -l gfree" and copy and paste up here the output please. Something is still wrong.
[G2 and Desire Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kwhkkwhk:
It shows

Rwxr-x system sdcard_rw 134401 2010-12-11 08:57 gfree
[G2 and Desire Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ianmcquinn:
By default on my phone (running CM6), the sdcard mount point is mounted with the noexec option (so no direct execution of any binaries). I assumed it was this way on all roms for security reasons, but I'm not familiar with Visionary. Are you saying that Visionary remounts the sdcard as exec for you? Or that it's already that way by default for the stock rom? If so, then yes, you can leave gfree on your sdcard. You can check by running mount in the terminal. You should see an entry for /sdcard with all of its options after it. If you see noexec in there, you will either need to move the files to the phone or remount your sdcard with the exec option instead.

If you want to copy files over to your phone while rooted, you could use Root Explorer (probably easiest way). I believe there are other free programs that allow r/w access, but I haven't tried anyway. Otherwise, you should be able to copy over the files in Terminal. I think the data partition is mounted as r/w but you can verify with the mount command mentioned above (on the line containing /data, look for either rw or ro). If there is a rw, then just use the copy command to copy the files where you need to:

su
cp /sdcard/gfree /data/local

If the data partition is mounted as ro, you'll need to remount as rw first:

su
mount -o remount,rw -t ext3 /dev/block/mmcblk0p26 /data

Pretty sure that won't be needed though.
[G2 and Desire Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] steviewevie:
ooh, ok, thanks, I never knew that. My apologies, that looks like why it's not running then.

Yeah, /data is mounted as rw by default, so should be fine to copy as you said.
[G2 and Desire Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kwhkkwhk:
Alright. This WORKS for running gfree

but for the step that makes the root "stick" according to the guide here...

http://xdaforums.com/wiki/index.php?title=HTC_Vision#Rooting_the_G2

where i says :

"You now have read-write access to your /system, hboot, and recovery partitions. But you still need to "lock in" root, and give you 'su' access in the future. So just do:

# /data/local/tmp/root

# sync

"

I can't find /data/local/tmp/root

so it fails to run..

any suggestions on this?

gfree runs fine. it says done when I did ./gfree -f

thanks guys for all the help!
[G2 and Desire Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] raitchison:
root is the binary that actually does the rooting, it's included in the gfree_temp-root zip. Did you copy that to /data/local/tmp or did you copy it somewhere else?
[G2 and Desire Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kwhkkwhk:
the only thing i did, if you were able to see my previous problem,

was just copying the gfree file over to the /data/local and running it

by ./gfree -f

other than that, i copied nothing else, since the guide using adb and the commands used moved nothing other than the gfree file i moved to /data/local

I didn't use the gfree_temp-root.zip folder, i used the gfree_02.zip (permaroot) folder.

and i temp rooted using visionary to get the needed gfree file onboard.

then do i need other filed then?

thank you so much for the quick reply.
[G2 and Desire Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ianmcquinn:
Yeah, root is actually just a script that installs things like busybox and su for you (see my earlier post).

You should copy those files to the proper locations listed in the wiki (pretty much every file but rage). It'll make life easier (otherwise, you'll have to do all of that stuff manually).

Congrats, you almost have a fully rooted phone.
[G2 and Desire Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kwhkkwhk:
THank you so much!

and thank you to all of you guys who helped me!

I managed to root my phone finally! Without adb!

I've been running TJs nonsense rom for a little while now and loved it. Someone posted about how they used another kernel on it with great results, so I tried to flash it. It got me stuck in a bootloop. So I put my sd card on my computer and downloaded the stock evo #15 kernel onto it, but now when I go on it won't mount the sd card! This is a problem because I can't even restore to my old backup. I'm currently without a phone until I can get this fixed, please help

EDIT: When I try to mount it it says "Can't mount /dev/block/mmcblk0p1 (or /dev/block/mmcblk0) (No such file or directory)"
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Zori:
Well.. I just kept trying the SD card over and over and it eventually mounted. So I flashed #15 and am good.

Before I post the application (that I’m making for myself) I was just wondering if anyone would be interested in using this application.

It’s almost done, just need to polish some small bugs.

It uses .NET framework 3.5, SQLite as storage.

I have tested this on Xperia X1 (my main device) and iPaq hx2495b.

Here are some screenshots of what it can do.

This is still work in progress. Feel free to let me know any bugs and/or any improvements.

NOTE: For unknown reason I can’t figure out how to make the application install to Storage Card.

Once you install the application, go to Option, Database Maintenance and Change Data Location.

[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] JarekG:
Sorry it does not. This app is made more of data collection instead using notes.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] caessa:
Yes, that solved the issue! I would have never thought about this.

After a short test I have a few suggestions:

- I have a German mobile phone and our date format is dd.mm.yyyy. When I first tried to open "My Bio" I got an error message regarding the date format (the tool "thought" that 17 is the month, not the day). Maybe you can check the system settings for this? I changed the format in the system settings and then I was able to open "My Bio".

- It would be helpful if you could put the unit behind weight, goal and waist size so everyone knows what to put in it.

- I added a new item, but I it seems that I can't edit it. The form is grayed out

I hope this is helpful

Caes
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] JarekG:
The date issue is interesting since I take the date from the device and split it and then setup the Date picker that way...I will do more testing and see why is doing this.

For the unit, for now it's Imperial (even though I'm Polish, live in Canada for 22 years I got use to imperial) but I'm working on making it Imperial/Metric.

As for added items, I notice that and the new version takes care of that.

I'll see if I can figure the date, and if I do I'll post new version in the morning.

Thanks for the bugs.

EDIT:

The date thing is very interesting. On my Device Emulator the date format for German is dd.mm.yy (only last 2 digits for year). I got the issue fix with opening Bio form, but now I have small problem when saving to database. The format is like this (dd.mm.yy).

I have to experiment with the dates little more.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] JarekG:
Main file has been updated. Install the new version and let me know.

I also removed the ZIP file for now.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] caessa:
Yes, it's working! I don't have any problems with the date and I can edit my items :)

Also I love the new option to save the blood pressure. I'll show this my boyfriend, because he writes down his blood pressure on paper :) And what I really have to say: I really like it that the keyboard don't hide the program and the program gets smaller.

Another suggestion:

- an option to delete categories, brand names, items, etc.

- also it would be great if you could realize an option to switch to metric, as you already mentioned. Fortunately I have a converter on my mobile phone :D

A little bug:

the edit form for items doesn't get a scroll bar, when I open the keyboard.

And two questions :D

- Why do I have two input fields (for example when I edit/add categories)

- Can you recommend a website that has information for the Nutrition Facts under items? In my calories table I only have information about the item and not for the daily value.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] JarekG:
I will add the delete function for categories, etc as long as they are not used in any item. Like right now you can delete items as long as it's not been selected in today's items (the history would not work cause of they database layout).

As for the edit categories, brand names....there are 2 cause one it to edit that items name and another is to add new item.

I will look in to the bug (it's small one) and post new version later on today.

What I do here is go to local store website, (pc.ca) and under each item they have that info. Also I think most manufacturers have that info on their website.

Or I just do search on Google (say calories count for slice of bread).

I don't want to add the items as I think most people would have lot's of items that they don't use.

But i created the database in a way so if you make all your changes and want to share with someone you can give them your files (only 2) and they will have all your items. The only drawback is that they will not be bale to keep theirs...once all the small bugs are fixed..Import will be next.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] caessa:
That sounds great!

And thanks for the information. I'm afraid the manufactures aren't that far here in Germany. I checked the nut bag and the butter (because these are here on my table :D) and only the butter has an common daily value, but not for the single facts. Maybe I can find a good website for this :)

Software function inquiry

Hello:

I've been using the app , as so far it's well. Just a couple of questions/possible suggestions

1) In the exercise log part of the software (of the current version 1.0.0.4) is there a way to to edit the history? The reason I ask is if I create a workout log a ahead of time and then come to it a day or two later, the date is not respective of the actual day I perfrom the task.

or can this be implemented in any future releases?

2) Can a field be edittable (i.e. Speed to Pounds)?

I just received a System Update on my rooted Nexus. The System Update says that it is part 1 of 2. I quote from my phone:

Android Update (Part 1 of 2)

This is the first of a two-part System Update

This first part is required to prepare your device

to receive new Android system software.

Your device will restart, and your settings and

Soon thereafter, you will receive a second

update containing the new Android system

software itself.

I isolated the following files from /cache and verified their checksums every step of attaching them here:
