[Droid Eris Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] USSENTERNCC1701E:
Because you were using RomManager to install ClockWork, it was actually automatically removed right after you finished with it. The way RomManager "installs" ClockWork it's not really flashed to the phone, it is just run once as a sort of special command in Amon. So ClockWork is not there to remove.

The actual RomManger program you can leave or remove, it won't hurt anything sitting there, it won't do you any much good either.

Hello,

I'm trying to connect to a Cisco VPN client by using VPN Connections on an Archos 70 IT 250 GB, that is rooted.

I always get a "Connection failed" message, after which the app crashes.

Did anyone succeed in getting VPN Connections working on Archos 70 IT ?

Regards,

Tonny

Hi,

I used to have the same error on my Galaxy S, when trying to create a VPN tunnel to my companies CISCO gateway.

The problem seems to relate to the missing tun.ko library.

I'm not sure if the Samsung Galaxy files will work for Archos, but you might want to adapt and try the following how-to: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=793712&highlight=tun.ko

[Gen8, Gen9, Gen10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] yankeespitfire:
I found a possible clue. After trying several free pptp vpn services and noticing that it seemed to resolve a url one time then just hang, I set up a vpn on my lan and tried the local coffee shop connection to access it. I found that if encryption was completely disabled on the lan vpn and unchecked on the 70 IT, it would connect and I could browse, check email, etc. As soon as I set the policy on the vpn server to enable any level of encryption it was back to the resolve 1 url and hang behavior. Of course an unencrypted vpn is about as worthless as t*ts on a bull but it's the only clue I've found. As a control, I tried an ip*d touch w/encryption on against the same vpn with all levels enabled and that worked.

If anybody else who's running a local vpn can duplicate and confirm this, it's a step in the right direction!

VPN Connections 0.99 (aka get-a-robot-vpnc) working on A101IT with urukdriod-0.6

I've managed to make get-a-robot-vpnc (aka VPN Connections 0.99) work on urukdroid0.6 on Archos 101 IT.

There are two issues with default vpnc.script, and one issue with output of 'ps' command needed by VPN Connections 0.99 GUI, to check is there a connected vpnc process.

Resolving vpnc.script issues:

1. Symbolic link is missing that links /bin/busybox (or /usr/local/bin/busysbox on urukdroid) to 'which' command (cd /usr/local/bin; ln -s busybox which)

2. Symbolic link is missing that links /bin/busybox (or /usr/local/bin/busysbox on urukdroid) to 'ip' command (cd /usr/local/bin; ln -s busybox ip)

$aur0n told me that this two commands/links will be included in urukdroid-0.7.

Resolving GUI 'ps' issue (a bit harder ;) ):

VPN COnnections GUI do 'ps | grep 'vpnc$' to see is there active vpnc process (established connection), but output of 'ps' command(s) found on urukdroid is not what GUI expects, so it cannot find vpnc proccess even if it is running and VPN is established.

On urukdroid there is 2 versions of 'ps' command:

1st is /bin/ps which is symbolic link to /bin/busybox (very old version of busybox (1.7.2, I believe) and output of ps this command is not suitable for VPN Connections (GUI)

2nd is /usr/local/bin/ps which is native ps command, but its output is also not suitable for VPN Connections (GUI)

There is a (hidden ;) ) 3rd 'ps' command in /usr/local/bin/busybox (that version of busybox is 1.17.2) - but also not suitable output for VPN Connections (GUI).

Experimenting a bit I've found that '/usr/local/bin/ps -A' gives an suitable output, so I:

1. renamed /usr/local/bin/ps to /usr/local/bin/ps.new

2. made a script /usr/local/bin/ps with:

#!/bin/sh
ps.new -A
exit $?

3. chown root:root /usr/local/bin/ps; chmod 755 /usr/local/bin/ps

After that, everything worked.

Hope this solves issues for some of you ;)

P.S. Forgot to mention - urukdroid 0.7 will have its own vpnc service built-in.

[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Jazzmata:
Ever since I rooted my desire, my device seems to have problems waking sometimes. Sometimes (not every time) I have to press the power button 2 to 3 times before it wakes. Putting my desire in standby requires only 1 press so no problems here.

I wonder whether this is a software or a hardware problem so if anyone has experienced this please let me know. My desire took a fairly nasty hit in the top corner (side of the power button) when it fell out of my pocket when it was only 1 day old but i cannot say with certainty that I experienced this problem since the beginning.

Current rom: gingervillain 0.8 (have tried may roms already)

Rooted, s-on
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Billy.:
The fact that you have tried many roms pretty much eliminates a software problem, i can only assume the might be a bit of disloged crud under the button hve you tried pressing at diffrent angles, holding the phone diffrent ways, if your lucky it might come out if not and if its bugging you that much then it looks like you will have to pay htc to fix.
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Jazzmata:
yeah it looks like it's hardware related but then I don't get why putting the device in standby never fails.

What exactly does your comment mean because I am having this problem and I'm not sure what to do about it.

[EVO Shift 4G General] fifedogg:
Seems like I got a pretty quick device :) I got a best of 1703
[EVO Shift 4G General] kenvan19:
Nice score man, I would suggest running Smartbench 2010 however. Quadrant is skewed towards Snapdragon processors so its really not a good benchmark.
[EVO Shift 4G General] fifedogg:
Compared to other types of processors your right. But as far as our phones go I think its a pretty good score.

Smartbench is byast to phones with higher GPU's like the Epic just like quadrant is more byast to CPU speed, with Snapdragon having the upper hand. I'm sure the Epic will do much better on quadrant with a legit 2.2 build and JIT enabled. From what I understand Quadrant uses more CPU when processing the 2d/3d as opposed to Smartbench using mainly the GPU. IMO quadrant gets high scores with fast cpu's and Smartbench gets super high scores with high GPU phones. I have an Epic and my Shift is faster all around except when its something to do with pure GPU.
[EVO Shift 4G General] kenvan19:
Oh I wasn't saying you had a bad score, its just that Quadrant scores are meaningless, sure you can compare a Shift to a Shift but it won't give you any scores that are applicable in the real world. If you're just looking for a big number then quadrant is great for that, however if you want something that provides an accurate representation of your phone's power Smartbench is the ticket!

~Edit~

Also, I forgot to mention how easy it is to trick quadrant and fake scores. People have gotten it to give last gen devices 2500+ scores. Quadrant is just a terrible benchmarking tool all around.

~Edit #2~

I know I sound like a **** who is trolling you but what I'm really trying to do is prove to the Evo and Epic fanboys that this device is really great. If you quote a big quadrant score they'll jump all over you and discredit you. If you quote a Smartbench score they will 1) have to go look up what smartbench is (c'mon its really new lol) and 2) make up some other fake reason to claim the other devices are better.

My point is that having owned an Epic since launch day, an Evo for a few days and my wife owning a Shift for a few days I can find only one thing I dislike about the shift whereas I have a myriad of issues with the others (that one issue is the screen size).

[EVO Shift 4G General] the5ifty:
Anyway...i ran a smartbench on the wifes shift and it scored considerably lower than the G2...i get ~1650s in quadrant
[EVO Shift 4G General] Acei:
Slight correction - Smartbench simply reports the performance of each phones in comparison to Nexus One. Productivity Index scores aren't supposed to be compared with Games Index scores since the bases for each are different.

I own a G2, Vibrant and N1 (also Optimus One). I am pretty happy with what Smartbench reports vs real experience. :D

The numbers may change drastically in v2011 if another phone is chosen as the base (I am tempted to do this since it appears that almost every phone in the market today grossly outperforms Snapdragon QSD8x50 in GPU by a big margin...
[EVO Shift 4G General] Heelfan71:
I scored a little over 1500 on Quadrant. Smart bench gave me 759/1097 and 693/1116

not sure if that is good or not. But my phone does seem a little sluggish.
[EVO Shift 4G General] Acei:
For some reason, Evo Shifts (in general) aren't reporting numbers as high as the G2 or Desire Z. Have a look at http://smartphonebenchmarks.com you will see some numbers for G2 and Desire Z, both stock and overclocked.
[EVO Shift 4G General] johnnycross22:
I also found my Shift scores are considerably lower than the G2, but then again I don't put too much stock into benchmarking programs. I find that out of the box the Shift is buttery smooth and at 800Mhz the quadrant/SB scores soundly beat my EVO clocked at 1Ghz and the EVO is pretty beastly.

Also considering people have been able to overclock the processor in the G2 from 800 to 1.9Ghz, we should be able to boost the Shift considerably once we have root. Hopefully the Shift is embraced by the dev community because overclock plus AOSP will be a beautiful thing. :D
[EVO Shift 4G General] Acei:
I'll be adding Evo Shift score to the chart shortly. So far, 759/1097 is the best score I've seen on here. If anyone can beat this score (in a stock form), please let me know here!
[EVO Shift 4G General] kenvan19:

It really is personal preference. Recommended rom however is DL09. For kernels its your choice, as you might want more battery life or maybe more speed

No matter what ROM or kernel you get, download JuiceDefender to help with battery.

I prefer SuperClean .4 DL09 with Adrynalyn's 12/30 test kernel. Also using Blackmod Enhanced theme.

I kept getting errors while with SNS using Blackhole but overall its pretty good as well.

JD works wonderfully on a GSM device. The reads are way off, but the effect was noticable on my N1. On CDMA..... notsomuch
[Fascinate General] skynet11:
Let me handle this answer... JD didn't actually save battery life on my phone, and it was cutting off wifi even when I was telling it not to.

By the way, the ROM/kernel combo I settled on is adrynalyn's 1/18 voodoo5 kernel on blackhole's 2.4 ROM. If you decide to use voodoo, I suggest you use a voodoo5 kernel- less headache with having to disable and reenable lagfix every time you flash a ROM. jt1134 also has a voodoo kernel, but if you use it, you need to be on a DJ05 ROM.

[HD2 General] yeahman45:
Posted a topic on which phone was the most hackable one? I got nexus one as the answer but i am seeing so much development on HD2 (WP7, android, meego, ubuntu) and it seems to me that this is actually the best hackable phone right now??? or i am missing a point?

i am mainly interested in android and maybe WP7...

so questions:

how well does android 2.2/2.3 runs on HD2? in terms of overall performance for web browsing (slow? saw a vid on youtube that scrolling and zooming lags a bit), apps/games compatibility (e.g. do some games lag?)

same for WP7

and most important question for me : does flash 10.1 works on android for HD2? (already posted a topic on http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=914547: so you can answer on the thread instead)
[HD2 General] birdra:
the new superRAM (SD) and NAND builds are just like a normal android phone. everything works perfect. i'm using android on hd2 since many months, never used winmo 6.5 anymore. absolutely no issues. trying wp7 now, i guess i'll go back to android :P (android = open system, much more better than iphone like restrictions)
[HD2 General] mystik610:
The higher quality Android roms run just as well as a native android phone...I'd say it runs better than most un-rooted, native android phones actually. Flash works on Android.

The older builds lagged and had problems, but the super ram builds and NAND builds ran very quickly and smoothly on my TMOUSA HD2.

As far as WP7 goes, the HD2 is buttery smooth and runs like a native WP7 phone. I'm impressed with it.

Obviously, running hacked ROMS, there are always little nuances and caveats you have to deal with that you wouldn't have to on a phone that natively runs WP7 or Android, but having the choice of running so many different OS's makes it very much worthwhile. The ability to load WP7 from ram and Android from SD card is a big plus. The thought of one day being able to dual boot both OS's is an even bigger plus.

The Nexus one runs Android only. The HD2 runs WM6.5, Android, WP7, and Ubuntu. No brainer there.

The HD2 is the first phone that I actually liked more over time
[HD2 General] TheATHEiST:
seriously lmao, dude there is absolutley no contest, and im not just saying because im a HD2 user im saying it because its a fact, The HD2 is THE most versatile phone/ppc there is for MANY reasons.

If you enjou tinkering with phone, trying different OS's and great phone specs at same time then there is no other choice then the HD2, simple as that.

You dont run WP7 from RAM you run it from NAND.
[HD2 General] nathonix:
I would add that if at all possible one should attempt to get a leo1024 instead of the 512 model, you'll find those to be the most versatile of the two. Top of the top in hackability afaik.

thx for the replies... what is leo 1024? 1024 flash memory?

going to buy one in Singapore there:

http://www.mobilesquare.com.sg/products/products_detail.asp?pid=1140&cid=76

looks like it's a 512mb flash version?
[HD2 General] yeahman45:
So that i can geta good idea of the performance, as compared to the htc desire, how well does android 2.2 perform on HD2? ( equal, little less or quite a big gap in performance)?
[HD2 General] raven_raven:
Short answer: yes, HD2 is the most hackable and customizable phone ever. There is no second device like HD2 on which you can choose between 3 (or maybe even 4) fully working mobile OSes and few ports of PC OS's (old Windows 95/98 and Ubuntu)!

Leo 1024 is HTC HD2 branded by T-Mobile which has 1024 MB of ROM storage, which means you get around 700 mb instead of 200 mb for apps when using Android and around 650 mb of storage on WinMo 6.5.

WP7 does not utilize full 1024 mb, it works as you had leo512.

[HD2 General] yeahman45:
how is performance of android on HD2 as compared to the desire(apparently the best android phone)?

unfortunately, i will be able to get only the 512mb version of HD2.. can you do dual boot (android and wp7) on it? can't i save and run my android apps on sd? (apart from additional storage, the 2 models are identical right(512 vs 1024): i mean i can install same custom roms, hacks etc.. right?)
[HD2 General] rr5678:
This is the only phone with this much hacking potential/ability. Makes me glad I bought it, even at full price.

Whaddya mean one day? :p

[YOUTUBE]FFeL-lkYdbM[/YOUTUBE]
[HD2 General] mystik610:
I can't speak for the Desire, as it isn't available where I am locally, but around here, everyone who isn't using an iPhone seems to be using an HTC EVO. In terms of performance, the HD2 running the more recent Android ROMS performs just as well, if not better, than a stock EVO.

There's also a video out there with an HD2 running WP7 side by side a stock WP7 phone, and the HD2 was actually faster than the stock WP7 phone.

That being said, if you're intention is to stick with Android, then get an Android phone. The beauty of the HD2 is the ability to run multiple OS's, and hopefully one day dual-boot any combination of OS's. But a stock Android phone will certainly have fewer quirks and tweaks to worry about to run perfectly. Owning an HD2 and keeping up with all of the developments really is a it of a commitment.

4 weeks ago and 1 year into my 24 month Orange contract, I was ready to sell my HD2 (Eur 512mb) and buy myself out of my contract so I could get a phone based on android simply because I was soooo bored with winmo 6.5

By chance I stumbled across xda devs and saw it was possible to run android from SD card and dual boot it with winmo.....I was overjoyed! a couple of weeks later NAND flashes became available and I was amazed at the fluidity of it running on my HD2 (Eur 512mb)....that made me even happier. I'm so glad I kept my phone, I saved myself a packet all thanks XDA and the band of devs. HD2 FTW :D
