[General Questions and Answers] psechtar:
suggestions

I admit I am a novice and I attempted to do things I shouldn't have done without research, but I read and read as everyone suggests in this forum. I watched video after video to make sure that I was doing things right. I still bricked my phone, as many people do, but I think I was mislead. I FULLY accept my responsibility for what I did. I would just like to elucidate some shortcomings of this forum without any malice.

You guys have a lot of power! You are very knowledgeable, and we as novice developers, who wish to do fun stuff with our phones, rely so much on your expertise.

I was able to successfully flash Android onto my SD card. It was awesome. I was loving it. But I kept reading that NAND would be much better because it would boot straight to Android without having to enter Window's Mobile first. I read that battery power would last much longer too. So I found out the way to flash HSPL3, MAGLDR, and NAND. It was working fine. But I liked the earlier format of the previous ROM running off of the SD card. So I figured out how to switch to another ROM.

It was on this forum" HTC Leo: > HD2 Android > HD2 Android NAND Development>" that I read in step 2 to "You should flash stock official Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM." I did, and ended up bricking my HD2. A post-bricking search of what happened revealed that it was apparently my fault that I had previously flashed my Radio to something that led to the system failure. I read somewhere else that if my 3G wasn't working to flash the radio. So I did.

What I am upset about is, that there was no mention made nor warning given in the above forum to ensure I hadn't already flashed my radio to something I shouldn't have. Nowhere on the page is there any information warning of ill effects by flashing to earlier ROM if the Radio was flashed too. I did exactly as I was instructed and flashed to stock Windows Mobile. So I have a heavy mirror as a result. I will try and go back to T-mobile and get something under warranty. They actually told me to come here to learn how to get Android on my HD2.

So my bottom line is just what Uncle Ben (Spiderman) told Peter, "With great power comes great responsibility." If you allow your developers to post phrases like "You should flash stock official Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM" you should also be sure there are no ramifications for performing such an action.

That's all. I'm still happy with the forum, it enables us lay folk to do some awesome stuff with our hardware. Please try and be more comprehensive when it comes to potential adverse effects. Have another person or committee edit the process and make sure that nothing is left out. I guess that is why it is in the forum format, but as a novice, you don't allow any comments regarding installation so I couldn't post there. Maybe someone else can save another phone if they come across my situation. Possibly add a new policy to have the administrator run through a checklist of things that could go wrong with each step before publication?

Hopefully with your power, you will get thanks and admiration for disasters averted. Keep up the good work!

Thanks,

ADB does not recognize a stock NookColor because debug mode must be enabled on the device. To enable debug mode, you must have a rooted NC.

If you boot with NookieFroyo, you can activate debug mode by selecting from the notification menu in the upper left after connecting the NC via USB.

I've given up trying to get full access to the Market. But I was able to find some of the apks on my Droid and was able to bring some of them over using a usb thumb drive. However, not all the apps I had downloaded to my Droid was visible. My question is do some apps delete their apks when done installing? I did have some that gave me a parse error when trying to install them on my tablet. Is there a hidden directory where I can find all the apks of the apps I've downloaded? e.g xplane, rush hour to name a few? Thanks. Or... is there a way to download the apk from Market to my PC directly? :confused: I'd be so happy if I could just get full access to google market!
[G Tablet Themes and Apps] sjmoreno:
The apks are usually in your data/apps or data/apps-private. You should be able to get to these directories using RootExplorer on your phone if its rooted. Then get yourself a free Dropbox account which allows you to transfer files to any device you installed Dropbox on.
[G Tablet Themes and Apps] tcrews:
Look in these two locations. In the second one (/mnt/asec) you'll see the folder name of the app and inside that folder is the pkg.apk so you'll probably want to rename after you move it.

/data/app

and

/mnt/asec/(name of app)
[G Tablet Themes and Apps] tekrhino:
Have you tried these methods yet?

Bluetooth File Transfer might help.

I put this link up a few days ago because I had the same problem.

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=930036

Also, This video really worked for me with getting full market (roughly 98.9% really)

:cool:
[G Tablet Themes and Apps] wordweaver27:
Reggie 777, thanks for asking this question. I've been trying to figure out the same thing and asked about it in another thread but didn't get a clear answer.

So, to the experts: do you have to be rooted to do this? I've looked in both of the locations that tcrews mentioned and don't see much, if anything. I'm using Astro FileManager, if that helps.

Thanks :)
[G Tablet Themes and Apps] tcrews:
Astro doesn't show the files in /data and you'll need to be rooted and use something like Root Explorer. I just tried Astro and once I go in to /data I see nothing (and my phone is rooted). Using Root Explorer I see all the folders under /data and go into the folder app. I see my apps installed internally there and in /mnt/asec I see my apps installed to SDcard there.
[G Tablet Themes and Apps] tekrhino:
No root neccessary to use Bluetooth File Transfer method.

I can only guess you need root for the method on the video because you do need to have an OS with GAPPS and Android market installed.

Root is needed to use Root explorer methed.

The Z4root1.2.2 app is a good tool to root without unlocking the bootloader and you can still keep your stock OS. However I'm assuming GAPPS may not work correctly with the stock TAPNTAP OS so getting full Google Android market with that OS is prolly not going to happen.
[G Tablet Themes and Apps] Reggie777:
Thanks to everyone for the help. I am processing and digesting the info and playing around with the suggestions.

Thanks to sjmoreno for telling me where the apps are. And also tcrews. I would never have thought of looking in /mnt/sec. I was actually able to find the apks I was looking for... xplane. et al. Now I'm fiddling with the bluetooth transfer. Got the phone and tablet paired... connection is not working yet. But I'm still trying.

Thanks too to tekrhino for the bluetooth suggestion. Got the transfer program for my Droid. I'm learning how to use it. Seems easy to set up, but won't actually send anything... Still exploring it.

The video on the Market fix doesn't work for me because no matter what I do, Market does not show up in the running apps section of settings. It doesn't even show up in system apps. It only shows up in the downloaded section.

As they said in Galaxy Quest... "Never Give Up. Never Surrender." Thanks everyone. :cool:
[G Tablet Themes and Apps] cybermage1:
I use TitaniumBackup syncing with dropbox, but really the market fix isnt hard... Running tntlite larest.
[G Tablet Themes and Apps] katmandu421:
+1 for dropbox. You can also use astro to backup the apk's. They are stored in a folder named backup on the root of your SD card.
[G Tablet Themes and Apps] JasonSCarter:
I use the program AndroZIP from the Market on my phone.

Do an application backup (part of the app) to my SDCard (it creates a app_backup folder on your SDcard)

Then, you can do bluetooth transfer, or plug phone and gTablet into PC with USB cables, wait for the drives to show up, and move the APK files over. Works well. No root required.

Since my phone is not rooted, I am not sure if this is grabing every application, but it seems to be. I was able to transfer whatever I wanted over from my phone to the tablet this way.
[G Tablet Themes and Apps] Mantara:
+1 titanium backup and dropbox.

Dropbox is handy but not necessary. Titanium is a must have purchase if you enjoy flashing new roms and don't feel like manually restoring all your apps and settings every time.

If you can download titanium to your Gtab your done. Dl titanium on your phone and backup your apps. Grab the file off your phones SD And move it to your Gtab. Open titanium on your Gtab and select the apps you want to install. You can even save app data this way and continue saved games from your phone ;-)
[G Tablet Themes and Apps] tekrhino:
Make sure both devices have BTFT installed, that way you won't have any any problems with FTP OBEX protocals.

The app works great and reduces the extra steps you need to take with TB and DB with having to move apk's between the source device to your pc then from your pc to the target device. BTFT is a good source device to target device app.

[Gen8 General] erichbitch:
Hi guys

just saw this and i think all of us should vote in this poll

http://www.arctablet.com/blog/archo...t-tablets-bugs-enhancements-feature-requests/

lets make our device better :)
[Gen8 General] Caste23:
ok...Done :)
[Gen8 General] wdl1908:
Done. There are some good questions on the survey.
[Gen8 General] ske714:
In the comments I requested support for HTTP Proxy, in case anyone is trying to think of things to wish for :)
[Gen8 General] czesiu:
poll is not "from" archos

please change the title
[Gen8 General] Techngro:
Thanks for alerting us to this survey. I hope that Archos really takes note of what we say. Here's what I posted for Archos to consider:

Archos, you guys have done some very good things. The battery life on my A70 is phenomenal for example. But more important than getting everything right, is PRIORITIZING what your customers need.

1. There is no 3G on any of the Gen8, so Bluetooth tethering is absolutely CRITICAL. I have had my A70 for over a month and I still cannot successfully tether it to my Android 2.2 phone (which is absolutely capable of tethering). That is a shame. An Android tablet should be able to tether to an Android phone like brother and sister. If Bluetooth is too difficult to get done now, at least add support for Ad-hoc WiFi. I need SOME way to tether my tablet to my phone. Please.

2. After tethering, your next priority (as in working on it right now) has to be getting Honeycomb pushed to the Gen 8. I know it will be a few months maybe, but please don't make us wait 8-10 months after other devices have it like some manufacturers do.

After you do those things, then you can focus on the rest of the stuff:

3. Increase RAM, yes even if you have to change your file system or whatever.

4. Allow charging via USB.

5. People have been begging for this since we got our hands on Gen8. Please, please, please create a system option to hide the on-screen buttons (back, menu, home, search) in certain situations. It throws off alignment on the homescreen and isn't very useful in the video player either.
[Gen8 General] tiki1217:
OK, Done +1
[Gen8 General] 900i:
Done.
[Gen8 General] chrulri:
Thx, done.
[Gen8 General] macemoneta:
I requested a standard 'enable root' setting, essential for backups. Without it, you have to use an uncertified tool like Archangel or install the SDE and an uncertified OS image. Not having a standard root option in the development settings is actually more of a security risk than having it.
[Gen8 General] ExploreMN:
LOL I asked for the same thing.
[Gen8 General] ExploreMN:
Just a word of advice. When writing to a company, generally telling them what to do and how to do it doesn't get you very far. Additionally, when telling a company "what the people want" you need to be able to back it up with fact. Otherwise they will likely view it as your opinion and thus you are speaking for one which lessons and "power" your message could send.

I mean your points are good, don't get me wrong. I just think a different style of writing would have gotten more than a circular file response...
[Gen8 General] hurrpancakes:
The amount of ram can't be changed via software.
[Gen8 General] ExploreMN:
I think he means by using a more efficient file system that doesn't eat up so much of the 256...but, that's a good point...if someone is translating his message to French, that could easily be lost/dismissed.
[Gen8 General] phoenixstudio:
done.

i hope they can enable the wireless connection via ad-hoc in the next update.
[Gen8 General] skorianez:
My hope is for a honeycomb release.
[Gen8 General] bronnes:
thanks - done
[Gen8 General] JasonOT:
No, but they can either enable a swap file by default or offer it as an option, as is being done with Uruk.
[Gen8 General] chrulri:
In newest firmware versions there is already a swap partition enabled (32-64 MB)
[Gen8 General] wdl1908:
Swap is nearly useless on android.

[Gen8 General] spicy_puerto_rican:
My requests....

For me, it's mainly a request for bigger and better hardware and a couple better nice-to-have's for the Archos 70/101IT.

Specifically:

- Expand the RAM to 1-2GB's.

- Have a built-in webcam/camera with at least 2 Megapixels AND have a 2nd webcam on the back with the same 2 Megapixels.

- Have the speakers put on the front sides of the device instead of on the back.

- Allow the user access to Overclock to speeds of about 1.5-2.0 without needing root access and set the device to run at 1GHz by default right out of the box.

- Allow the user to set the CPU of the device to use an external HDD as internal storage instead of the internal Flash memory being used ... OR ... use both external HDD AND internal Flash memory as 1 total amount of storage if possible.

- Make the next version of the Archos 70/101IT just a tad bit thicker to allow a user to slide in a laptop HDD with up to 1TB of storage inside the Archos via a built-in, enclosed SATA port on on the back of the device and have it enclosed like the bottom of a laptop with its cover. Also have the system's firmware capable of reading/writing to any laptop HDD up to 1TB that is installed.

- Add a Mini USB port that can read/write AND charge other devices that are connected to it.

- Put a full HDMI port on it instead of a Mini HDMI port.

- Allow the device to charge from the full USB port.

- Put a full size SD Card Slot in it like my Creative Zen X-Fi has ... OR ... put 2 Mini SD Card Slots on the side of the device.

- Add a slot on the back or side of the device so a user can lock a stylus (up to 3/4 the size of a pen) to the side or back of it and put the stylus out when they need it.

- Finally, above ALL else... keep/upgrade to the most stable Android version possible!

:cool::D

How does ROM Manager and CWM work exactly? Does it flash your kernel (I read somewhere it didn't anymore)? If I need to go back to stock (besides unrooting, uninstalling busybox, etc.), what do I need to do? Just uninstall ROM Manager and away goes the recovery image?

I used to love your ROMs for my old Touch HD.. good to see you now have a Galaxy S!

Not so sure from your posts above what method you have tried. When are you trying to connect Odin? You need to be in Download Mode first, fire up Odin, then connect your phone...

Is this what you are doing?

Also, which version of Odin you using? In Win7 you may need to right click and run as administrator?
