I am on Quantum Rom v2.7.0.DK28 via CWM 3.0.0.5. I just attempted the hulu flash mod and it doesn't seem to work. I did make sure that flash updates were uninstalled, auto updates turned off, plugins set to always on, and Dolphin browser HD User Agent was set to Desktop.

There was no error during the flash. I got:

ClockworkMod Recovery v3.0.0.5

Checking for ext4 partitions...

Checking /system...

Checking /data...

Checking /cache...

Done!

--Installing: /sdcard/huluflash.zip

Install from sdcard complete.

Hulu gives the usual error of "unfortunately, Hulu is not supported by your platform..."
[Epic 4G Android Development] smark72:
I just tried aosp lockscreen and samapps and both did not work. It said install complete but cw 3005 did not automatically reboot. It just said installation complete. I had to reboot manually and when phone started no change to lockscreen and samapps were not installed.
[Epic 4G Android Development] USMC_LOPEZ:
Dont think it was the right link...upload dates are from last year...
[Epic 4G Android Development] nubsors:
I could be wrong but are you guys making sure to reboot recovery into the EXT4 version before you flash?
[Epic 4G Android Development] joshk89:
Jan 6 2011 was last year?
[Epic 4G Android Development] USMC_LOPEZ:
I stand corrected it works... once flash go to your sd and look for the hulu app in data and then install.hope this helps and thanks kidd.
[Epic 4G Android Development] USMC_LOPEZ:
Lol I clicked on the wrong link...sorry guys
[Epic 4G Android Development] fishfuzz:
Sadly, it still shows:

"Unfortunately Hulu is not supported on your platform..."

On another note, I also flashed the AOSPLock, but my lock screen did not change upon reboot. Anything else that needs to be done (like the Hulu install)?
[Epic 4G Android Development] ROFLsplash:
CWM 3.0.0.5

Checking for EXT 4

All pass

I do believe so ;)

They install correctly but neither the AOSP lockscreen appears or the Samsung widgets.
[Epic 4G Android Development] USMC_LOPEZ:
Hold on I got a working link for the aosp...i have it on my cell

Thats should work
[Epic 4G Android Development] USMC_LOPEZ:
Dude... If you installed the flashes the hulu zip... Reboot and go into your sd card and look for the zip you flashed... then select it and open it... you then see data folder... click on that and select the hulu apk file... install... I noticed that its an app not available on the market and it totally wotks.
[Epic 4G Android Development] ROFLsplash:
Watch the quintuple post there my friend ;)

But thank you sir, looking at this script told me why it isn't working.

TO ANYONE TRYING TO INSTALL AN EDIFY SCRIPT, AND UPON REBOOT THE INSTALLED .ZIP IS NOT SHOWING:

Make sure you wipe Cache and Dalvik Cache before installing .zips.

Wipe both

Install .zip

Reboot

Profit
[Epic 4G Android Development] linuxkidd:
I dug through this package and see that it does wipe the davlik-cache automatically. As per ROFLsplash's instructions below, this is required to get them to work properly.

I've updated the top post with these install instructions. Thanks ROFLsplash!

[Epic 4G Android Development] fishfuzz:
Wiped, installed, rebooted. The OP AOSPLock does not appear. Haven't tried the recent link.

Hulu launches, but still shows the "Unfortunately Hulu is not supported..."

For hulu to work you need to uninstall updates to adobe flash player!
[Epic 4G Android Development] USMC_LOPEZ:
Thank dameon87...
[Epic 4G Android Development] fishfuzz:
I did. According to the app info, I am using Flash version 10.1.92.8 (which came with Quantum?)
[Epic 4G Android Development] buggerritt:
I did exactly that. It doesn't work on my phone. I am running Quantum latest build. Please see post #6 in this thread. I just tried, again by wiping cache and dalvik cache and installing the zip via CWM. Hulu app still has the "not supported" msg..
[Epic 4G Android Development] joshk89:
Anyone have sam apps up and running? i wiped like said and still a no go
[Epic 4G Android Development] Eazail70x7:
Sorry if this is a newbie question, but what is edify??

Hey im trying to get hulu working...i am ext4 with cwm3 on quantum rom 2.7...i flashed the huluzip, then went into the hulu zip then data and installed the apk...i launched it and it says my device is not supported...that is without flash 10.1 installed....i also tried it with 10.1 installed and same results....any thoughts?
[Epic 4G Android Development] joshk89:
I say just stay on quantum 2.5 til kinks are wrked out
[Epic 4G Android Development] myros2:
many Thanks

many thanks for posting this
[Epic 4G Android Development] the.gwo:
I'm running Quantum 2.7 and I can't get the sam apps to show up. I'm wiping both caches before installing the zip but still nothing. CWM doesn't report any errors.

Any update on this? Thanks!
[Epic 4G Android Development] joshk89:
Found a working zip for samapps, its listed in the add ons for the truelyepic rom in development
[Epic 4G Android Development] linuxkidd:
Gents,

Thanks for all the testing. After reviewing a few other's edify scripts, I found that I was indeed missing a few parts on the original versions I had posted. The zip files have all been updated as of a few minutes ago with new Edify install scripts.

Please let me know if these do not work properly.

Thanks,

LK
[Epic 4G Android Development] the.gwo:
Installed updated samapps.zip and it worked great!

Another problem, though. I also tried installing the updated stockemail.zip but I'm getting FCs when I try to run the app. I was using the new email app before I flashed. Has this happened to anyone else?

Thanks LK!
[Epic 4G Android Development] kush621:

[Epic 4G General] DiGi760:
Here is a thread from over in the I9000 forum discussing RFS vs ext4 on MoviNand. I know MoviNand and the OneNand that we have are different, but I don't really know much about the differences between them. Regardless, that thread has a whole bunch of info about RFS and ext4 that might help some people get a better grasp on the debate that has been going on around here lately.
[Epic 4G General] gTen:
I don't think we suffer from the fsync issue that the SGS suffers from...That said we don't particularly need a new thread for this :/
[Epic 4G General] DiGi760:
You may be right about the fsync. I know OneNand behaves differently than MoviNand, but there are a few good points in the thread about how ext4 and rfs interact with storage.

And maybe it didn't need to be another thread, but the other discussion thread is getting kind of full.
[Epic 4G General] plapczyn:
I like the wealth of info in the i9000 discussion, however there are no references to where any of this info is coming from and that it is a post on XDA doesn't mean that the contents are factual. Even popular tech websites have started taking everything from XDA as facts, which really upsets me. I've seen lots of posts about Epic Froyo with dates in them that didn't come true.

Having this said, the thread on the i9000 page does seem well written and OP seems to know what he is talking about. I will link the i9000 in my reference on RFS and EXT4, but warn about the lack of citation.
[Samsung Mesmerize] Sighcosis:
I was going to ask you if you could do a step by step. I jade downloaded all the stuff was having a few issues getting going.

[Samsung Mesmerize] dcow90:
Some extra info..

Some other nice sites to mention if you're truley interested in getting into building your own ROMs and not just porting (but certainly porting as well) might be:

Samsung Open Source Release Center:

http://opensource.samsung.com/index.jsp

From the Samsung OSRC you can get the source files to compile the Linux kernel for the Samsung Mezmerize. You will have to sign up for an account (free) and the download speeds are throttled but whatever.. it's the source files right from the manufacturer.

After you learn how to compile the kernel from Samsung source, you might take a stab at compiling the Voodoo v5 lagfix kernel for the mezmerize yourself.

Project Voodoo:

http://project-voodoo.org/

Project Voodoo has some very nice documentation and their own IRC channel on freenode #project-voodoo if you have any questions. After you work through compiling a modified kernel, you should be on your way to working on building your own roms and possibly helping with development and porting work for the 2.2 and 2.3 versions of the Android Open Source Project.

Most of these efforts can be found on github using their nice search. Or, look at the 2.1[Alpha] ROM thread for links to the fascinate source:

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=898231

On that note, GET FAMILIAR USING GIT. You should already have git on your linux distro if you followed the instructions above (or if you've ever issued a sudo apt-get install git command). git has a very nice tutorial and extensive man documentation which can be accessed using:

man 7 gittutorial

Why? Because:

http://android.git.kernel.org/

and:

http://source.android.com/source/git-repo.html

I hope this extra info helps. And for some positive reinforcement.. building a kernel and subsequently rom is not that difficult (assuming you're knowledgeable in Computer Science and have some enthusiasm for a project like this.. for someone without prior knowledge it's a different issue..). But it is a BIG task. With that in mind, it just requires a lot of persistance and A LOT of reading, checking, and double checking. If you're willing to take the time to read others' documentation and build upon what they've done you can do a lot!

Bump, this should be stickied.

Scotsman, Are you receiving all of our pm's? I sent a few today, not sure if you've had a chance to read them but someone else thought the same so I wonder if the forum is having issues sending them to you?
[Samsung Mesmerize] dcow90:
He probably gets lot's of pm's every day.. I doubt he reads them. He hasn't read mine. Someone might try contacting the XDA admins and getting us a mod here who actually owns a Mesmerize. As far as I understand, TheScotsman is an HTC guy (well at least not Samsung)...

Edit: Not trying to sound hostile, just frank. I also hadn't seen this:

http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=10927527&postcount=6

Perhaps we just need to work with him to revamp the stickies here a bit. I agree we need some solid stickies so users aren't asking the same old over and over again. I'm sure we'll be able to work things out in time.
[Samsung Mesmerize] bdemartino:
Yea, I really don't think he's receiving all the pm's. He was very fast to notice and suggest a separate thread for my newb guide (to be stickied) but I sent a few more pm's requesting a few other threads be done as well but no response. The very odd thing is only my initial response to his pm shows in my "sent" messages, none of the others are so I am wondering if the forum limits the amount a user can send to a mod.

Unbuntu 10.10 32bit vs 64bit

Hi Developers!

I've downloaded Unbuntu 10.10 32bit Desktop and burned the image onto a CD.

Just wondering about the which flavor we should be using for development work.

There is 32bit and 64bit. I know that 32bit has been around for way longer.

But, should we be looking at 64bit for development?

Thanks,

Kevin
[Samsung Mesmerize] dcow90:
For anything past 2.2 you will need 64bit Ubuntu. This is kinda odd but whatever. Definitely go 64bit, none of the 'new' sources will compile without it (= Now, if the dev site would just update their instructions to reflect the latest policies.. .. their primary instructions are still for 32bit and their 64bit instructions are 'experimental' (but they work fine).
[Samsung Mesmerize] Onebryteday:
Good to know! Thanks man!;)

[Samsung Mesmerize] droidzach:
Typo . android-sdk_r10-linex_x86.tgz should be

. android-sdk_r10-linux_x86.tgz

Also you cannot type all of the code word for word as some of the files you download have different names or are in different folders than where phidelt originally had them. Just read the filenames and make sure that you have the correct directories where files are located.

[Samsung Mesmerize] Snyperx:
I could not get 64-bit Ubuntu to install in Virtualbox. Apparently this is a known issue with the current version of 4.0.6. Also once everything is setup what are the next steps? What is needed to look at the various "ROM" files?
[Samsung Mesmerize] ChromWolf:
Because I didn't want to worry about this, but did want to get 64-bit Ubuntu, I went with VMware instead.

So my question is this: What benefits are there to deving in linux over Windows, when the SDK is available for Windows? I imagine there *are* benefits, I just don't know what they are, so this is an actual question rather than a critique.
[Samsung Mesmerize] phidelt82:
I don't use a virtual setup any more, personally. I know that this isn't an option for some people, but it was an easy transition for me when my laptop took a dump and I couldn't get it to recover. I really don't miss windows at all and I find that a full Linux build is really easy to use. I personally use Pinguy OS, which is just a really built up Ubuntu.

I am still planning on making another guide to building a basic ROM, but the basic step to looking into the files you need is to mount your rfs in linux. This is as easy as using the command:

sudo mount -o loop factoryfs.rfs /mnt

then you just have to go to /mnt on your drive and your /system is mounted there. You can copy all of that to a folder and make necessary changes to build your ROM.

The benefits of actually using Linux over Windows is easy. There are things that you just cannot do in Windows that you can in Linux. Most people are really just more comfortable in Windows and don't want to let that comfort go. I had the same issues. Luckily I was forced into my decision. I really don't miss Windows at all, and I enjoy not having to dual-boot or run a vbox setup. Things just seem to work.

Hopefully soon, I will get time to finish out a tutorial on building a basic ROM and get it posted
[Samsung Mesmerize] ChromWolf:
I'm pretty excited to play around with this actually. XD I need to flash my phone back to PnP so I can rely on the phone more, it's just not giving me 100% performance (as people may have seen in the MIUI thread), so I'd love to be able to tinker with the phone.apk, the related settings, and maybe the keyboard too. The ironic part is, I had errors updating the SDK in the Linux VM, whereas the windows one updated fine. I didn't try loading Eclipse in Linus either, but I wonder if I'll be able to or not. Prolly something I'll play with again my next free weekend.

I'm definitely awaiting new guides/addons to this one. But then, I'm also all about an updated PnP, I know that needs some tinkering with the latest couple of builds.

Either way, great stuff as always Phi. :D
[Samsung Mesmerize] Snyperx:
What is the big minus of developing windows? I am running 64-bit Windows 7 and have ADB installed as well as eclipse and the JDK.
[Samsung Mesmerize] bdemartino:
Big minus - no support - all of the dev's use linux to build from source so you're on your own with figuring stuff out. If you're just hacking and tweaking things tho, like myself, i haven't made the jump and have had no issues using windows to do so. (x86 even.)
[Windows Phone 7 General] Audio:
Hi all, just came across a variety of images showing the below theme for WP7, just wondering if anyone knows of it? Should we be expecting this kind of theme customisation with the update(s)? Is this a photoshop job? Looks very Manilla-ish but much better than the solid colour chioces available atm.
[Windows Phone 7 General] diboze:
doesnt seems real to me. But Ms said, they want to give HTC deeper access to the OS...so I do think something like this will come some day :D
[Windows Phone 7 General] FromOuterSpace:
As far as i understand, those dead tiles, uses images, over simple canvas colored with ancient color. If HTC provides non-transparent image, it will be used, to create such an effect. That doesn't even impress me. If MS will give control to change main page of the phone, iPhone will look like a brick.
[Windows Phone 7 General] Casey_boy:
It's a fake image.

I think that's a HTC HD2 with Fireslave's WP7 Throttlelauncher theme with one of the modifications that's been created for it.

Also, look at the buttons. All current WP7 phones have capacitive buttons, whereas they are hardware ones.

[Windows Phone 7 General] vetvito:
Concept from a fellow xda member. Search these threads and you'll find it.
[Windows Phone 7 General] davidebanks:
yes, unfortunately, this WP7 theme was a theme dreamt up by a Fanboy. i think it was what he was hoping the HD3/7 would look like. it was/is so good that some companies thought it was for real!
[Windows Phone 7 General] Audio:
ahh well that's a shame. Cheers for clearing this up then. A lot of companies (particular car kit ones) are using this image, need to put some copyright on that picture! :)

[Captivate General] reinbeau:
From the Serendipity thread:

I'm trying to understand this. How would you 'flash sbl.bin' incorrectly?

This incorrect flash causes the loss of the three-button combo?

How do you avoid this problem?

The conversation was about flashing with Odin back to stock before flashing a new ROM. Some say they don't bother and I've heard that's looking for trouble, then again, it sounds as though following a ROM sequence (going up by version numbers) might be what they're talking about.

Any help wrapping my mind around all of this would be appreciated!
[Captivate General] Palmetto_X:
They are probably talking about using th manual ODIN, where you have to select the files.

If you are using the One click Odin version you should not have any problems. Just verify that you have the button combos before you do anything. Vol-up + Vol-Dwn + Plug in usb for download mode. If you can get there you are good
[Captivate General] reinbeau:
Yes, I've verified I have the three button combo, I just wanted to make sure I didn't do anything to cause a loss of the ability. Thank you for your help! :)
[Captivate General] norcal einstein:
What's your batch number? I believe this whole problem is isolated down to some batch 1008 phones. Even if you happen to have one of these phones, there are solutions out there to avoid losing 3 button combo.
[Captivate General] reinbeau:
Batch #1007. As I said, I just want to avoid the problem. So could you explain what methods there are to avoid the loss? All to further my knowledge :)
[Captivate General] silverslotcar:
Here is it simply put: DG's Odin One Click flashes an sbl.bin that breaks the 3-button combo for a large percentage of batch 1008 users. Therefore, ppl with batch 1008s are urged to use C3POLOL's Odin flasher that contains an sbl.bin that does NOT break the 3-button recovery. So if a 1008 user accidently knocked his/her battery out while falshing with odin one click, they could be TRULY bricked bcuz they have a bad bootloader and will have no access to download/recovery modes. This would require a jig to force the phone into download mode and then use C3POLOL's regular Odin to flash the stock rom with fixed sbl.bin. Hopefully this clears things up.

PS. You said you have a batch 1007, so if you flash to stock with Odin One Click by DG and then afterwards you STILL have the 3-button combo then your perfectly fine.
[Captivate General] reinbeau:
silverslotcar, based on what you've told me, I'll be sure to not flash with Odin One-Click from DG! I don't know which one I downloaded, I"ll have to check. I haven't played with Odin yet, but I may be doing so this weekend.
[Captivate General] silverslotcar:
You have a batch 1007. You should be fine using the one click odin. You said it didn't break your 3-button combo so your fine. If you use it and then still can get to recovery by holding both volumes and power til the second black screen then your good.
[Captivate General] norcal einstein:
I'm batch 1007. I have NO problems using Designgear's Odin One-Click. You being 1007 as well, you should have the same experience!
[Captivate General] reinbeau:
Awesome, thanx, guys, for the education!
[Captivate General] avs420:
What about batch 1010
[Captivate General] norcal einstein:
Batch 1010 users need to follow these directions to flash with Odin
