i had the same problem... try eugenes ADB push FIX on it...

this worked for me... also if you are running the SuperC voodoo recovery screen ( RED ) try turning debug on... that worked for me

"We had are First Sleepless Night with the New baby Boy.... Between Trying Figure out what was Wrong & taking turns with the Wife Holding Aries, I tried Pushing File's & forgot adb push didn't work...

Now this Script originally is what I made for the Behold 2, but the Basic still works For the SGV..

Just mod the script if your using the userinit.sh

Using this script you can place the userinit.sh any place you would Like...

I hope ever gets Good use out of this & Please Enjoy!

this happened to me with root explorer

first are you selecting the mount r/w option on top of the root explorer

if answer is yes then you have the mounting issue on 2.2 roms follow this thread

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=846384

it fixed the problem for me, just be sure to select the correct zip i choose the wrong one first and my ext sd was shown as a cd, then reflashed the second one and it was solved. just flash with CMR

if this helped you please hit the thanks bottom

Try super manager its free and does the same thing. I had a problem with root explorer a while back. Eventually it worked fine again.
[Vibrant Themes and Apps] kusotare:
another easy way to do it is to just mount system as rw through adb.

mount -o rw,remount /dev/block/mtdblock3 /system

i have to do it every time i push new ringones/alerts to /system/media/audio
[Vibrant Themes and Apps] rayvil30:
I was having same problem and fixed it by uninstalling and reinstalling root explorer. That did the trick for me.

Might be a silly question but... is this a dual boot kinda thing? I've none experience with Ubuntu, but would like to.
[G Tablet Android Development] jimcpl:
Hi,

I have the same question as jpmi above.

Also, is this apparoach similar to this thread:

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=908502

If it is, it's great that you got it working!

Having said that, I have a couple of questions, because I'd really like to do this with my Gtab:

- I know you said that you're running Zpad firmware. I'm still on stock TNT 3452, and I'd really like to get this working on stock. FYI, with stock:

/sdcard == internal SDCARD

/sdcard2 == external microSD card

Can you tell me (us) what changes in the b/e/u files need to be changed for stock?

- FYI, I had started to look into what was in that thread I linked above, and ended up borking my Gtab. However, one of the things that I noted when I was reviewing the scripts from that other implementation was that it expected to use an ext2fs for the .img, and TNT stock doesn't have the ext2fs module. I noticed that your scripts use yaff, which I think the stock TNT also uses, i.e., the big .img file is an ext2fs, and that gets mounted using a loop mount. Is that correct.

- Again, I have the same question as jpmi above. I'd really like to be able to put this ubuntu stuff JUST on the external microSD, not affecting the stock TNT stuff on the internal SDCARD (/sdcard), and be able to boot into stock TNT, start a term, and then run a (or some) command lines to bring the Gtab up in Ubuntu. Does what you describe in this thread do that?

Thanks for this, and sorry for all the questions!!

Jim
[G Tablet Android Development] iammuze:
hey jim

that approach looks very similar, although it's for the nook color and wouldn't work on your gtab.

you're right, i'm going to update the OP, /sdcard points to internal and /sdcard2 to external on my ROM as well. got 'em switched. you would want to change your "b" script to use /sdcard2 and make sure that the ubuntu folder is on the external storage.

also, i'm not sure about ext2fs on TNT stock, but you can download and flash pershoots gtab kernel which will work with TNT but give you the correct support. this won't change your rom, you probably won't notice any difference at all.

the "e" and "u" scripts are all good. you don't need to mess with them.

yes, you're correct in assuming that the .img file gets mounted as a loop device. (losetup). you're also correct in saying that you will be able to boot into TNT and run ubuntu from the terminal without derailing TNT. in fact, because the ubuntu shell happens in better terminal and the gui happens in android-vnc, you can use the home button to get back into your android launcher at any time, and back into ubuntu without interrupting anything. it's pretty cool.

i hope i got you on the right track. keep in mind that this isn't my work, just adapted a teeny bit for the gtab from a guide in the nexus one forums.

good luck!
[G Tablet Android Development] jimcpl:
Hi,

Thanks for the info.

The ext2fs thing is a stopper for me, as I don't want to (permanently) switch off of stock TNT yet, so the kernel thing is a kind of no-go.

At one point, I thought that it was possible to add filetype support using modules, e.g. using modprobe and the appropriate .so, but haven't figured that one one.

Another way: I think you did this with Zpad? So, I'm assuming that comes with ext2fs support? Is that via modprobe, or is it built into the Zpad kernel?

Again, thanks for the info.

Running with vnc, meaning where

:)
[G Tablet Android Development] Xerion:
Got it running, but when I type a 'd' the current app minimizes, rather useless like that ;)
[G Tablet Android Development] dekkon:
I followed your instructions to the letter but after i run "sh u" and then hit b to boot I get the following error. What did I do wrong, or is it a simple mistake?

Edit: should probably mention I am using data2loop. Might be the cause of my problems...
[G Tablet Android Development] iammuze:
you could technically use insmod to push the correct kernel module, but in all honesty it's probably not worth it. you'd have to do it at every boot. do you have clockworkmod recovery installed? installing a new kernel is as simple as flashing it like a rom, and going back to stock is just as easy. there's nothing permanent about any changes you make, especially because the gtab comes with root access already.

and no, i have a viewsonic gtablet, i'm just using the zpad clean rom with pershoot's kernel, which comes with the ext2fs pieces built in.

i suppose with a local vnc viewer (or a forwarded port) you could run ubuntu and android simultaneously with another computer. i can't imagine why, except just to do it. :D

i had this stupid-ass problem too. it turns out that ubuntu is using "d" as a keyboard shortcut, for some reason. while in the ubuntu gui, go to (system -> preferences -> keyboard shortcuts) i think it's the very bottom one. just click it and hit backspace to clear the key, and you may have to restart your ubuntu shell to see the change, it'll stick. thanks for bringing this up, i'll throw it in the OP.

like i said, i haven't tried or heard of anyone trying with data2loop, so that could be your problem. also make sure that there are no apps installed to your sd card (see "what you'll need" in the OP) and try again if there are.
[G Tablet Android Development] dekkon:
I borked something and needed to do a factory reset (no big deal) which I think should have cleared out data2loop after I reinstalled my rom (TnT Lite 4.1.0 w/pershoot's 1/12 kernel). I am however trying to run this from the internal sdcard (/sdcard/ubuntu) instead of the external /sdcard2. I still get the same error.
[G Tablet Android Development] Xerion:
Haha, I looked everywhere except in Ubuntu itself :D Thanks, now I can at least play with it a bit ;)

[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] JJG2:
I'm using Root Explorer.

Everything I select the systems directory and check the "write" boxes and press okay, nothing happens. I still can't transfer files in there. I'm trying to change the bootup and startup audio sounds in the system folder.

And while im in the systems folder, I try to press "Mount R/W" and nothing happens. The toggle works when I'm in the / directory though, just not in the /system/.

Also, I'm trying to flash the new version of the MTM keyboard. I launch CWM through Rom Manager, and try to flash the zip file, but it says installation aborted. But I go to "advanced" and select "Fix Permissions," and try again, it installs successfully. But when I reboot my phone, my keyboard stays the same as the old one and the new version is no where to be found.

Any help is appreciated!

Hi :-) shall be getting sns today, which is nice. Now....would you knowledgeable people recommend root and recovery to be done as soon as I get it. I mean can it be done right out of the box....that way when the system wipes....there is noneof my personal infoto be lost. Hope that makes sense. Thank you :-)

Nothing to backup if you're going to root it right away.

Get the phone, turn it on directly to bootloader, plug it in and do the fastboot OEM unlock command.

[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] AngelDeath:
I know that some of you are still dealing with this issue and in different roms, As I was too, but for anyone wishing to fix this the right way after installing their roms, follow below and this will fix your problem.

Disable WIFI (settings/System/Wireless & networks untick wifi. System must be rooted, use any root explorer, and navigate to your SD card location where you put the file you downloaded, and select to copy it, then navigate to system/lib. and rename the file with adding .old at the end, and paste this file into this location. Then MOVE the file you just added ".old" to your sdcard as a backup, exit out of your explorer and reboot.

And when you are back in the phone, turn wifi on, go to settings about phone then hardware information, and you now have your actual wifi mac address and not the generic.

Anyone who uses zip roms, can replace this file in there zip file before flashing. Should work without having an issue, cant guarantee every phone as I do not have every phone, nor can I guarantee every rom, but you can always try it.

If this was fixed then FML but I tried.

The attached file is not zipped, after downloading just rename and remove the .zip at the end, forum will not allow uploading of unknown extension. Initial User Testing shows POSSIBLY NOT Compatible with Gingerbread

[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] Archer:
I use NexusHD2 Gingerbread, and it doesn't work for me (it's \system\lib - no etc folder in system). It actually stopped my wifi working. It turned on for a few seconds, didn't even try to connect, and then turned off.

It's all fine after restoring the old state and rebooting though.

Thanks for the effort all the same - I hope others have more luck than me.
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] agarp:
if it really works why dont you share this with the developers so that the new builds will come with the real mac address.

are you sure that you are getting the real MAC address.

because in the MDJ's latest kernel we get a unique MAC address but not the original one
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] AngelDeath:
Thanx, edited my original post with the correct path, and incompatible with Gingerbread Possibly

AGarp, now I cant be 100% sure, but I can assure you that ts not the 00:11:22:33:44:55. My MAC Addy right now is: 00:90:4C:B7:CE:36 Unique or Actual I dont think matters once you have a actual valid MAC Address.

And as for sharing it with Developers, I think by posting here I am offering it to Dev's and anyone else that wants it.
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] agarp:
well if its the unique one then most of the new nand builds comes with it.
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] Archer:
It's not dissimilar to the MAC address I have on my device (not the same though). Is this just a forced value, or is it actually the real MAC address? If it's a forced value I'm just wondering what advantage there is over having the previously forced one of 00:11:22:33:44:55? Surely you'd still have the same MAC address as someone else that did the same thing on their phone.

Or am I missing something?
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] agarp:
i think the advantage is when u try to connect two Leo phones to a same network might get conflict because of similar MAC Addresses

and some routers wont accept this "00:11:22:33:44:55" MAC Address

Having same issue - HD2 with various Android ROMs on old TMob Unlimited data plan working combination that has been fine for more than 6 months - now overnight I am getting Web2Go message re data plan incorrect for phone and their upsell site - and of course no data connectivity (was working at 10:30PM - then at 6:30am not working - between putting phone down and picking it up)

Will try suggested settings but have to wonder are TMob doing some kind of rolling update thats killing what older data plans can do.

Any help/advice appreciated

Data Web2Go update

I too, was having the same issue... and here is what I found from T-Mobile Support:

T-Mobile just recently did a network upgrade & a Data Plan change:

1: pushing 4G to more areas

2: new data plans (no more unlimited plans for NEW customers)

if you were ALREADY on an unlimited data plan... those were supposed to be grandfathered into the new setup... but something got messed up during that transition.

I recommend, if you are still having issues (mine resolved this morning... been down for 2 days) is to contact T-Mobile customer support to report your issue.

Hope that helps you guys

Update:

my APN settings are as follows, by the way:

Name : T-Mobile Data

APN: epc.tmobile.com

MMSC : http://mms.msg.eng.t-mobile.com/mms/wapenc

all other fields are blank.
[HD2 General] Ryan79:
Bit of clarification too regarding this issue... they said the accounts affected were discounted unlimited data plans.

I've got the business card with my trouble ticket #.... When i get home i will post it, if you need the number for reference with TMO support.

Funny... if you call AT&T customer service and ask about the 2.2 update, you can actually hear the representative getting that "glassy eyed" blank, "rabbit in the headlights" look when you try to explain what you are looking for. AND then, you can expect to be guided through a long, boring script of "Have you checked the settings.. Have you restarted the device..." and whatnot, only to be told, two hours later that the update is still in production and no actual date has been set for the release for the update.

Better to spend that two hours beating your head against the wall, or poking yourself in the eye with a spoon... It will be less painful, and more amusing for you.
