I just want to run the android 2.1 emulator so I can install and run apps on it as if i were doing it on my phone.

I am not a programmer or anything so I don't know if I am in over my head or what

I quickly followed this tutorial while I was at work:

http://www.maggadget.com/try-android-2-1-on-windows/

when I try to create a new AVD, it wont let me select a target. that option is deactivated. and at the bottom it says a target must be selected...

So I entered the unlock code on my HD2, but I still don't have any cell data. Is there something else I need to do besides just entering an unlock code?

Running MDJ Gingerbread 1.6beta NAND rom.
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] betolley:
.I have been trying to get my tablet wits a81e uses a omap3 chipset to load a module. it uses Android 2.2 and the uname -r on the unit is 2.6.32 instead of 2.6.32.9 like the other modules droid_22 and milestone leak that are supplied. i am trying to compile the module and when it creates it it appears to be based on the overclock-mod.c file instead of the overclock.c file. Is there somthing special I should be doing?

I am using ubuntu and the google ndk. I compile and I end up with the .ko file which will load. There are no kern messages other than the kernel is tained. If I run strings overclock.ko I only can basically see the .modinfo from the file.

I have worked on this forever....Can you give any suggestions?

[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] EVOIXGSR:
I have a stock Captivate, and am new to Android OS. My understanding is that the Captivate has Android 2.1 with Samsung's Touch Whiz "blended" into it. I'm also aware that there are many custom roms that have various versions of Android with various tweeks and what-not, and to implement any custom rom, you first have to root (unlock) you phone, which voids the warranty.

My question is: Is it possible to install a basic Android (vanilla) version (2.3?) onto my Captivate without rooting my phone, or if it has to be rooted, is it as simple as just rooting the phone, and then downloading/installing the Android 2.3 source code? Or, are the custom roms necessary because they contain drivers for the various hardware components in the Captivate? School a noob please. :o
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mod777:
2.3 is Gingerbread not vanilla (if and when google ever makes a vanilla, it will be a long time from now). Anyays, you HAVE to root the phone then install rom manager from the market and install the rom zip through either rom manager or clockwork recovery (installed when on rom manager's first use).
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] EVOIXGSR:
I get that vanilla means just stock android, whether it be 2.1, 2.3, etc. I was a little ambiguous with my question, apologies.

I'm assuming I would just follow the sticky directions for rooting?

When I root my phone, I understand that it voids my warranty, but would it prevent me from installing the mythical official AT&T 2.2 update?

So, I can use this to install stock/vanilla android 2.2 or 2.3, and it will work with the Captivate, or will some hardware not function properly?...This goes back to my original question about whether or not stock/vanilla android 2.2 or 2.3 will run on my phone without error, or if a custom rom is required to get the android OS to work with the captivate's specific hardware.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mod777:
Yes.

If samsung/att finds out your rooted it will void the warranty, but you can go back to stock and they won't know. You will likely have to be on stock for att ota updates to work.

First of all, make sure you can get into download mode using a button combo (see the sticky), otherwise you might need a jig if things go bad. Download mode is what is used to go back to stock prior to flashing a rom.

stock has locked down features of your phone such as: usb tethering, mobile ap, 2g/3g toggle, and more; plus stock is painfully laggy (slow)

a good rom like the one I use (see sig) has all these features working and is very fast.

Edit: I misunderstood you. No you will not be able to use your phone with android that is not specific to a captivate or i9000.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] EVOIXGSR:
Thanks man, you deff cleared up a bunch of stuff for me. I'll prob just wait for the official release then, as I'm pretty darn happy with 2.1 (coming from a tilt2 with stock 6.5pro).

I'm starting to get the feeling that there is a better chance of having a cargo jet, full of gypsy tears and unicorn blood, fall out of the sky on my car while I'm on my way home from work today, than seeing the official froyo by this spring...
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] avgjoegeek:
Yea.. still ongoing issues with what Samsung is releasing and AT&T keeps waiting. So we keep waiting.

And a true "Google Vanilla" ROM for these phones are almost impossible. Gingerbread will be the closest thing we are going to get to having it.

Between the Touchwiz interface, the proprietary RFS file system, and the fact that Samsung has integrated so much other bloat type crap in their OS - then fails to release the Source code so the folks on XDA can fix the mess.
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] vahdyx:
So I just flashed Axura 2.2.5.9 and have kernel version 2.6.32.9 and well I wanted to use visual voicemail from Tmobile, but it won't let me install the newest version. So I tried to uninstall the older version that came with the rom and it won't let me.

The uninstall button is grayed out.

When I try to download the newer version from the market it says, "duplicate provider authority."

:confused:

Thanks
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Insomaniac10:
easiest way is through Root Explorer, simply delete the .apk file from /system/app

or, if you have ADB on your PC, access your device through adb, and type the following commands:

adb shell

su

mount -o rw,remount /system

cd /system/app

rm nameof.apk

reboot

hope this helps
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] vahdyx:
Well, using the app "Super manager" as my root explorer didn't work, so I ended up purchasing "SystemApp Remover" from the market and it worked well. As for the other method you described above was above my tech level and knowledge so I figured I'd find an easier method with keeping that as a last case scenario.

I got rid of Voicemail notifier, google voice and visual voicemail. Worked like a charm.
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Insomaniac10:
yes thats a good app....but the above methods undoubtedly work. did you even try them? if they didnt work, which method did you try, and what part of it didnt work? they are two of the original ways of removing system apps, theyve been around almost as long as root access for Android was discovered....good things to know and learn

if someone is trying to help you, dont just say the methods dont work.......either admit that you didnt even try, or post what went wrong, cause it couldve been something you did...because if another person who has this same problem sees this thread, they will automatically think these things dont work and will lose solutions to their problem.

^^^this goes for any situation, not just this one
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] vahdyx:
Okay my apologies,

I went to the market and tried to find a root explorer but couldn't find a free one so I downloaded "Super Manager" app

I went into system file and long pressed on the file and tapped delete, the file just sat there. I did it again and it wouldn't delete. I restated my phone and it still didn't work.

So it wasn't necessarily the above method that didn't work it was the app that didn't work. I'll correct the post above as well.
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] willsnews:
I had a problem with system app remover before as I think it didnt just delete the apk but core processes linked to the apk I had a unbelievable flurry of fc maybe that was just my experience but root explorer is indisputably the easiest way to delete apk's cause you don't need anything other than the phone to do so
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] demize!:
Yeah, ditto that @wills, I would advise to just freeze the process in titanium and go from there. I wouldn't remove it.

Don't blame me, blame my keyboard's autocorrection algorithm.
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] s15274n:
I deleted about 10 apps from system/app using root explorer. Not sure why a lot of the bloat was left in/inluded in the latest axura... I wish apps that can be grabbed for free from the market could be left out. ESPECIALLY the bloat from samsung.

I mean, why include samsung widgets when you removed touchwiz?
[G Tablet General] Newanzer:
Would one of the Dev's be willing to tackle getting VPN PPTP with encryption (mppe 128 or 256) working on the G-Tab? Right now it is either not working or working as unsecured PPTP (depending on the ROM). If anyone knows of a ROM where this is functional please let me know.

What little I have found on the history of VPN in android indicates that the last version with encrypted PPTP was version 1.6. Google was having problems keeping a connection to the VPN server.

Reference: http://code.google.com/p/android/issues/detail?id=4706

For myself and my coworkers this has become an important need. If we can't get the feature we may be forced to get iPads (*cringe*). I for one am willing to make donations to Dev(s) who can add this. Some ROMs have the option but seem to be lacking the module (unconfirmed) to handle encryption through the included PPPD.

It is possible this may come back in Android 3.0 since it is geared toward tablets but I haven't been able to find any information either way.

Thank you for your time.
[G Tablet General] prscott1:
Did you try one of clemsyn's latest kernels - they have the tun support. Also on market place there is an OpenVPN app that attempts to install an openvpn binary - that same dev also has an OpenVPN settings app that you can use to create your tunnel. Perhaps that will work for you.
[G Tablet General] Newanzer:
I can currently get a VPN connection, but the server refuses it because it isn't encrypted - even with the encryption option on. I'll try clemsyn's kernel. I noticed he posted one specific to the ZTab ROM recently.
[G Tablet General] jmdearras:
PLEASE keep us updated. This is also essential to my job and I want to use android! GTab in particular. :D:D:D
[G Tablet General] Newanzer:
No luck. Tried the new kernel and still get the same error. G-Tab shows connection lost. Server log shows same error (port 47 blocked or unable to negotiate encryption). Since our laptops all work I'm going to assume port 47 isn't blocked on our network. Maybe not enabled on G-Tab?
[G Tablet General] prscott1:
Which ROM are you using?

EDIT: nevermind - I see zpad rom. Did you try the vegan rom or tnt rom?
[G Tablet General] vectorcharlie:
I am setting up a server with two cards and windows server 8 and an accesible ip just as test lab for this. If any dev wants access pm me.
[G Tablet General] clemsyn:
Try this, I enabled everything re: PPP in this kernel including PPTP and also enable MPPE (Microsoft PPP Encryption). I hope this helps. BTW, this MPPE is experimental in the kernel but I hope it works for you.
[G Tablet General] Newanzer:
Brillant! I have a connection! From home even. Many Thanks! (but I can only hit the button once...)

I'll keep an eye on it and see how long the connection lasts. That seemed to be the bug that killed Google's interest in this. With luck it wont show because someone tweaked over it.

I'll spread the word. Thanks again!!

Update: Unfortunately the data traffic stops within a minute. The connection stays up and reports a server connection just no data passes. This is the same issue as Google has in it's bug report. I"ll look at the server logs in the morning to see if anything is reported, but it is at least a step in the right direction.

BTW: The GUI seems a bit faster. Were there any other tweaks in that kernel?
[G Tablet General] clemsyn:
There is a cryto sha 256 or 512. Lmk which to enable

[G Tablet General] burdweiser:
How do I install this file?
[G Tablet General] clemsyn:
I might have to take a pause on this since I'm having issues with my Gtab at the moment. My screen turned white and I can't see a thing. I was playing angry birds and noticed that my screen sensitivity turned bad and a few seconds later it turned all white. I might have to get a replacement for my Gtab :(

I can build the kernel for Vegan tab but there is no way for me to test it but it should work fine :)

I read a post that doing this might fix it:

Add the following to /etc/pptpd.conf

mru 1280

mtu 1280

Please try and see how it goes.
[G Tablet General] Newanzer:
More Info

I had our network admin look at the VPN server logs for my connection. No errors or warning from the server.

One interesting thing to note, it seems that when the data transfer between the tab and the VPN server stops it's only one way. I was able to send mail out from the tab, but not receive mail or view web pages. I'm wondering if the decryption side (incoming to tab) of MPPe is broken. That could explain why the server keeps a connection, but the data flow seems to stop.

Could we steel code from a linux kernel that works?
[G Tablet General] Newanzer:
I don't have a pptpd.conf in /etc. What is the file syntax? I'll make one and copy it in. I'm assuming this is ./etc and not ./system/etc.

Edit: Never mind found info here: http://www.linux.org.au/~quozl/pptp/pptpd.conf.5.html

Edit Edit: Ok I think I have reached the level of my ignorance. How do you get a file copied to /etc? I have tried a file manager with SU permissions, and a terminal with SU permissions. In both cases I am getting a permission denied error. What's the secret?
[G Tablet General] clemsyn:
Upload the file and ill make a zip file for you to flash it.
[G Tablet General] cherbold:
So close ... I think Google may need to work out a few of their bugs first.

First off a big thanks to clemsyn for the hard work. (I used Root Explorer to copy the file pptp.conf)

Using the latest kernel posted here for VeganTab I was able to connect to a MS PPTP VPN and ping for a long while however just like my Samsung Vibrant the VPN appears to die once a burst of traffic is shot through the tunnel. The tunnel I have discovered is not disconnected but unusable through the Android system. If I disconnect the VPN session remotely the log files indicate that the remote server killed the connection. Not sure much can be done as now I feel I am hampered by Google's inability to care for VPN access. I am sure the developers here can figure this out but why should they have to figure this out when it seems to be a fundamental issue with Google's code. Maybe this disconnection does not happen with OpenVPN? Anybody use it? I am tempted to setup a test OpenVPN server just to see how long I can keep my connection.

BTW ... After remotely killing the VPN connection the VPN services crashes and throws up an exception in the back ground when terminating the service.
[G Tablet General] vectorcharlie:
Not working. I might try without the encryption in the server side to check if that works. It actually connects (pings) a couple of seconds with the LAN computers... then it nevers connects again... even with reboots. Does the pptpd.conf only need those two lines?
[G Tablet General] clemsyn:
I found this site which may help

http://code.google.com/p/android/issues/detail?id=6402

A user stated this:

"Hey! Saw another post elswhere in the forum. For Microsoft VPN using PPTP, I think it helps to disable Software Compression in Routing and Remote Access Manager on the Windows server hosting VPN. After I did that, I was able to connect to VPN.

In Routing and Remote Access Manager, right click on the server in the tree and select Properties. Then, under the PPP tab, uncheck Software Compression. I am the Sys Admin at my Co, so I was able to do this myself. Others may have to submit a request to your respective Sys Admins. Besides, who uses compression on VPN's since the death of Dial-up?

Good Luck!"

[G Tablet General] clemsyn:

[G Tablet General] jmdearras:
I'm at work in the middle of soemthing, but I'll try it ASAP. :)
[G Tablet General] cherbold:
Encryption Failing still

Tried it with kernel this morning and all works with no encryption. When I turn on encryption the connection is stable enough to send pings but once I try to do a VNC or RDP session the tablet times out. If I send a disconnect from the server the tablet still knows it is connected and disconnects but the tablet has already lost routing and the ability to ping through the VPN. Thanks again for your hard work on this.
[G Tablet General] Newanzer:
Some of this I believe is caused by the settings of the wireless access point. For instance, while I am at work my VPN with encryption seems to work 90% of the time with some odd times were it stops receiving data. At home, my VPN connection works as you describe above. I do not know enough about my work connection to know how it is setup. I only know it is 24Mbs (probably B only) My home one is a B/G 54 Mbs dLink router w/ wireless. I will have to check to see what the settings are as I left them all at default.

I have some ideas, but I do not want to speculate right now without more information.
[G Tablet General] cherbold:
Encryption still bombs...

Not sure about the wireless settings as I have tried WEP/WPA/WPA2 with various levels of encryption. I think I am going to go the path of OpenVPN and see what that brings. With encryption off things work fine. I am starting to wonder if you pass encrypted data through an encrypted VPN (MS) if that is when it fails as I can use PocketCloud and the VPN traffic will quit as soon as it is initiated this is the same with other RDP and VNC clients. Wish I was smarter with this stuff I would tinker with it all as I have the servers and such in front of me to play with.
[G Tablet General] clemsyn:
Please try bitrix's Cyanogen Gingerbread build with the kernel I built and see if Cyanogen's version fixed this issue. Hopefully it works :)
[G Tablet General] cherbold:
Encryption Still killing the connection

Tried the Cyanogen7 build with Clemsyn's kernel. Failed with encryption and could not get OpenVPN to work with me. Using VeganTab5.1ZPad and OpenVPN I have worked out an SSL encryption however I still have to initialize the tap0 device on the tablet to make it all work using GScript. One way to kill a VPN connection with encryption on this thing is to connect to a remote RDP on the remote LAN you can instantly see the pings stop if you are using adb shell. However big thanks for Clemsyn's kernel or my OpenVPN solution would not work either it seems.

After seeing a few flashing disasters I thought to propose a separation of these Forums. It certainly seems development for the PCS/CDMA devices is at a slower and incompatiable pace.

A separate Forum would allow the community to help clarify the different needs for the different devices, and perhaps accelerate PCS development.

Your Thoughts?
