Hi

I recently upgraded to HTC wildfire official froyo 2.2.1 update.

My build number is 2.25.720.1

I know for sure that there is no root available yet for froyo. But can anyone help me in getting the soft root access, which would help run root only apps pls?

Thanks,

Goldbeard
[Wildfire Android Development] 3xeno:
Even that is not possible. Only shell root is possible as of now, but, that is totally different from system root, which is required for root apps to run.

If you needed root apps, why on earth did you upgrade when there are 1000 posts from different users shouting themselves hoarse not to upgrade to official 2.2?
[Wildfire Android Development] SophT:
Don't forget that here in China they're sold with 2.2
[Wildfire Android Development] 3xeno:
China 2.2 is downgradeable to EU / WWE 2.1. (There is a thread somewhere in this forum) However, for new Outside of China buyers, if he gets an out of the box 2.2, then its hard luck.

However, in this case, the OP has specifically said "I recently upgraded to HTC wildfire official froyo 2.2.1 update."
[myTouch 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] PhantomRampage:
Hi guys, just got my MT4G and unfortunately i need some help.

My goal is to flash the CyanogenMod 7 nightlies. I've followed the rage method posted on the wiki located here: http://wiki.cyanogenmod.com/index.php?title=TMobile_myTouch_4G:_Full_Update_Guide

I run into trouble during one of the last steps while running "/data/local/tmp/root" in terminal emulator on my phone. When i try to run it I get this, which im assuming is an error:

mkdir failed for /system/xbin, File exists

mount: Device or resource busy

Does anyone know what i can do to fix this? Even though the command doesnt work i tried completing the directions by running "sync" afterwards and rebooting.

As of now, I have gained S-Off in my bootloader/hboot (you know what i mean). I even have root access whilst booted.

NOW, there's one last problem. To flash CyanogenMod 7 you need ClockworkMod recovery 3.xx but rom manager only flashed version 2.xx for me (and yes, the recovery flashed just fine via Rom Manager) so i tried manually flashing 3.xx via fastboot with the "fastboot flash recovery recovery_name.img" command but i get this error now

sending 'recovery' <4200 KB>... OKAY [ 1.328.s ]

writing 'recovery' ... FAILED (remote: not allowed)

Why do i get the "not allowed error"

I tried flashing the recovery through terminal emulator as well with the following command:

su

flash_image recovery /sdcard/recovery_name.img

This also gave me an error :[ It says:

flash_image: not found

Can anyone help me out please? I apologize for the long post but i wanted to be thorough in case it would help. For a tl:dr version i'll bold my errors.

If anyone can help i'd be very very grateful!
[myTouch 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] option94:
run cmd as admin or sudo fastboot in linux to fix the failed recovery flash.

flash image not found is because the stock rom and iced glacier dont have flash_image.

unzip attached file and put it in /system/bin/ and you'll be fine.

[myTouch 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] PhantomRampage:

So I decided to flash the engineering hboot as osugsxr recommended and it worked beautifully! I was able to flash ClockworkMod 3.xx recovery right after with no problems. Thanks guys :D

[myTouch 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] faux123:
I tried setting up my SnowLeopard Macbook to compile AOSP and decided to give up. There are simply too many hacks/patches needed to get SnowLeopard to play nicely to compile AOSP. I am not sure about the CM build tree, but I assume CM follows AOSP, so they should be similar in setup.

My suggestion, get Parallel Desktop, install Ubuntu-64, download all the necessary libraries/tools, compile, done...

I wasted 2 days trying to get my SnowLeopard to compile AOSP, then I wised up and used Parallel+Ubuntu, then I was able to compile AOSP in 3 hours, after that, I downloaded MT4G Kernel source from HTC, compiled that in an hour... (BTW, if you decide to use Parallel, I suggest you make the virtual harddisk size to at least 20GB, I made a mistake allocating only 16 GB, but for AOSP+HTC Kernel, I ran out of space, had to use GParted to extend my virtual disk, wasted 1/2 hour there)

AOSP version 2.3 (GingerBread) and beyond requires ubuntu-64 anyways, so this is future proofing anyways...
[myTouch 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jaaronmoody:
Thanks for the advice, I've spent a few days myself trying aosp first, then CM. I actually did get a few working roms out of my mac from the cm source until about a week ago. Then i started to get the errors above. It's like they changed something in the source that no longer agrees with the tools or os installed. I'll give the parallel + ubuntu a shot. But i have a quick question for you. Did you actually get a working aosp build for mt4g? Flashed and all features working?
[myTouch 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jaaronmoody:
conclusion

Well i gave the parallels desktop a shot and it was super easy to setup,build environment setup fine and repo sync'd .. except i couldn't get adb to list my device. I searched and tried all kinds of rules (i.e. 51.android.rules) and no go. So, I decided to go back to the dual boot option. I tried to get 10.10 installed, but when I try to boot the ubuntu cd from rEFIt menu, i get

1.

2.

Select CD-Rom Boot Option.... or something like that

then I restart into osx

I tried a couple different discs and nothing. So, I went back to 10.4 and all is fine now.

I also kept searching for the rules for glacier and found them here http://wiki.cyanogenmod.com/index.php?title=Udev#MyTouch_4G

With that, I may try VirtualBox in the future, or some other free VM, but for now, I'm working with dual boot and trying to build an AOSP rom. Thanks for the help guys!

[Galaxy Tab General] lardman:
I'm trying to debug Meego startup on the Tab, so it would be useful to see the kernel boot messages.

I've read about ways to see the boot messages on other devices, and tried some of these approaches, but I can't seem to find anyone who has boot messages showing on the Galaxy Tab.

Now these might be enabled in one or other of the custom roms, if so could someone point me towards the relevant one and I'll see how it's done.

So far, I've enabled CONFIG_FRAMEBUFFER_CONSOLE and disabled CONFIG_DUMMY_CONSOLE and I've also changed the recovery.rc file to use:

export ANDROID_BOOTLOGO 0

This gives me a text console at boot time rotated to the left (i.e. rotate your Tab to the right and it would be that way up) and rather than the samsung animated logo, I see the text ANDROID somewhere around about the middle of the screen. If anyone knows where these words are coming from, that would be useful (I need to do more grepping of the kernel source, but unfortunately there are lots of *ANDROID* #DEFINEs so it's not a quick thing to do)

Unfortunately it looks like the kernel ignores command line parameters, so that indicates that the bootloader is overriding them (which means I've still got console=ttySAC2). This is probably why I'm not seeing anything (I had added an extra console=tty0 to the build-time specified kernel commands)

So, does anyone have any solutions or thoughts?

If not, the next step is to override the kernel command line stuff which the bootloader passes and add in the console=tty0 line I (think) I need.
[Galaxy Tab General] lardman:
Ok so I was right, I needed to patch the kernel to allow both my build-time and the bootloader command line to be combined so that I could add console=tty0 (just patching the bootloader stuff out caused the kernel to hang iirc, so it looks like there's something useful in there)
[Galaxy Tab General] jamiemac1977:
Mhmm Meego ...Tasty!!!

But if you look in the development section everyone from Team Whiskey to Supercurio is calling KA7 official. AFAIK, Tmo has never made a reference to KA7. Do they know something I don't?

Any help or clarification would be appreciated.

imo i would go with team whiskey or supercurio they always seem to know alot more than what tmobile says.

[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] alonsh4:
I don't live in the US so i wouldn't know but I think they are all taking about an official OTA update (KA7) that was released in the US right after the KA6 update.

Maybe the KA7 they're talking about is not official, but a leak, which will make more sense, because, well, KA6 was just released :)

How far off am I? :)

Can we get an answer from someone who's up to date with the whole KA6/KA7 situation?
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] pdefazio:
That's why I am confused. As far as I know KA7 is a leak. KA6 is official. But they are all calling KA7 official. I don't know who is right, but the reason I am asking is because I'd like to stay with the "official" as a base for a while. Just don't know what that is...
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Gigabytex:
According to T-Mobile KA6 is officially not available OTA, you could stick with that for official or flash whatever the Devs call official as it will probably be better anyway. KA6 is the "official" T-Mobile will look into if you show them your phone, my guess.
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jmcghee1973:
Look at it this way....KA6 is "Official"..thru mini kies... KA7 will be "Official OTA" and an update to the mini kies version.

I find it super obtrusive to be honest - especially in landscape mode - 8 out of 10 IE viewing in landscape finishes by accidently pressin search and not being able to go back!

Agreed - the search key sucks. You don't search much, and you always seem to hit it by accident.

Personally would love to turn it off, or turn it to a long key-press, then at least you won't hit it accidently.

Probably some registry-settings can do this.
[Omnia 7 General] CreepinJesus:
I like it... I like how it's used by different applications to search just those applications (email, IMDB, etc). Yes, I sometimes press it by accident, but I can just press Back and I'm back where I was...
[Omnia 7 General] lzyla:
not true...

I just made my test again.

Open IE - go to a website, then press Search that redirects you to bing and when you press back - you re not on your original website but back to the menu...

search buttons sucks...
[Omnia 7 General] CreepinJesus:
For me it goes back to IE :confused:

Edit: unless you mean after you've actually done a search?
[Omnia 7 General] lzyla:
that is really strange but no - I did not perform any search.

I feel it has to do smth with my location settings or some other settings that are mysterious to me.

I noticed that since playing with location settings to access the marketplace which is still not available in my country - I changed the location to UK, but IE search setting to my locale - When I press the search button I am not redirected to a nice bing search page with the fullscreen background picture but rather to bing's web address (and the displayed picture only takes 40-50% of the screen and is too small to enter anything without zooming in).

This could be the case with my problem.

Anyway - still hate the search button and would love someone to find a cure for it ;-)

you have to use a position-fixed cuihandler.dll module.

how to fix it manually in Menu_Enhancement_1_1_20162731_00_leo_3.14:

try the package i uploaded first (i flashed and tested it myself).

if this doesn't work for you, upload your cuihandler.dll and i will ask ultrashot for the correct value (maybe different).
