[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] RickAstley:
Hey,

I've compiled my own kernel with a few tweaks and to add EB support. I used rafpigna 1.7 as a base.

However, after numerous attempts I can't get wifi working (When you attempt to activate it in gingerbread it just returns "Error"). I've tried to compile the driver as a module and into the kernel, neither works.

Anyone have any pointers, or can you tell me where to start looking?

Thanks, Rick
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] dlsniper:
You have to copy some modules to the rom, /system/lib/modules/ , as well from the compiled source, bcm4329.ko and tun.ko

Also check for permissions on those files and try rebooting the phone.

[G2 and Desire Z General] 901-Memphis:
I am having a bit of difficulty rooting my g2. I am not sure if its related to my os or not but i can not get it to work.

I have followed this and tried it all kinds of different ways.

addictivetips.com/mobile/what-is-adb-and-how-to-install-it-android/[/url]

I can get to my run command after doing all of that and it shows my serial number after typing adb devices but after that i can't enter any info in the sdk run command promt.

I have not been able to gain temp root yet because it won't let me enter the commands. I went to try to re-install java/sdk manager yet again and now it says java is not in the right path.

Any help?
[G2 and Desire Z General] martonikaj:
If you're having troubles with ADB, why use it? You don't need ADB anymore to root the G2. It can all be done by placing the files on the SD card and running Terminal Emulator on the phone. You can run any of the prompts from ADB in the phone instead. I rooted my first G2 this way. It took some getting used to coming from a phone with a 1-click root, but it wasn't hard.

Check the Wiki, pretty sure it outlines this method as well.
[G2 and Desire Z General] 901-Memphis:
Do you have a link for that method i would be glad to try it but i am not sure what to search for, cant find it under rooting g2 with sd card

Also i am trying to gain permanent root if possible
[G2 and Desire Z General] martonikaj:
Yep let me grab a link for you (theres actually a video tutorial I wanna try and find). But basically instead of using ADB to push the files to the correct location, you just have to manually put the files in the right locations on the SDcard, which is where ADB pushes them anyways.

K so I followed this method: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tU9zn_BEth4

The files he refers to are in this thread: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=833965

Now different people have had different issues with this. I personally had some issues where it tells you to run #sync, because my perm root wouldn't stick properly after reboot. If this doesn't work properly, I'm sure someone can help you with your drivers to get ADB working.

I should also say that you don't necessarily have to do this method with the initial temp root via visionary, you can simply do the one outlined in the Wiki for rooting (aka http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=834228 ), but just place the files manually and run the commands in terminal emulator.
[G2 and Desire Z General] ianmcquinn:
If you got the adb devices command to work you are actually in good shape. You are supposed to enter all of the commands from what you are calling the "run command" prompt anyway (the one you used for adb devices).
[G2 and Desire Z General] ianmcquinn:
Unfortunately this won't work (if you don't want to use ADB, Visionary must be used to get temp root). ADB is needed in order to push the files directly to the phone. If you try copying the files to the SD card first, you won't have the correct permissions to copy the files to the phone in Terminal. You are also not allowed to execute programs directly from the SD card (mounted as noexec), so you can't try to obtain temp root from there. If you want to use the gfree method of rooting without using ADB, I made a guide using Visionary for the temp root here: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=928160.

But the OP actually has ADB working, so he should be able to use any of the guides.
[G2 and Desire Z General] 901-Memphis:
This is the error i get now if i try to enter anything in the sdk manager run prompt box. Is there some place else i should be entering the commands?

Uploaded with ImageShack.us
[G2 and Desire Z General] ianmcquinn:
You are supposed to be using the regular command prompt (I think you referred to it as the "run command prompt" earlier). It is the prompt in which you successfully ran the "adb devices" command. That is the only prompt you need to use.
[G2 and Desire Z General] 901-Memphis:
Do i enter commands 1 at a time or all at once?
[G2 and Desire Z General] Powers88:
First off, Yes you enter each line as you see it.

Second just to make sure you are in the right area to enter these commands, to get to command prompt you can either search for it from the start menu or hold the "windows button + R".

That opens your run command from there type in "cmd" and that opens command prompt.

Next make sure your current directory is the one you installed adb into. To get to that you can type "cd C:/...... whatever folder you installed it to."

To make sure my adb is working I usually type "adb devices" and see if my phone shows up.

Good luck

Glad to see someone else from the good ole 901 around here =)
[G2 and Desire Z General] 901-Memphis:
Okay does anyone have a better guide to rooting?

I got all the way to pushing all the files on the sd card and running the terminal emulator where it shows forked children, reboots the terminal emulator and then i can not enter /data/local/gfree -f

sync

It wont find that file
[G2 and Desire Z General] Powers88:
try pushing the file to that folder again
[G2 and Desire Z General] 901-Memphis:
Re-Tried everything at least 3 times, including pushing the files that didn't go.

I give up Ive spent so much time on this only to have it fail at the most unlikely times.

Will wait for another method to root come available
[G2 and Desire Z General] Powers88:
You could try downloading and installing Droid Explorer. It installs adb and fastboot files in its install folder.
[G2 and Desire Z General] ianmcquinn:
Are you sure you actually pushed all of the needed files to your phone correctly (i.e., no errors appeared when doing so)? Which guide are you following and what were the specific errors you are getting? Once you have temp root, running gfree and obtaining permanent root only takes a few more minutes...

Also, did you try any other guides (like the one I linked to earlier)? If you are waiting for a new method of rooting, you might be waiting for a while (since the existing methods work, I don't know how actively people are working on new methods).
[G2 and Desire Z General] 901-Memphis:
Using this guide

http://wiki.cyanogenmod.com/index.php?title=TMobile_G2:_Rooting

I get an error when i attempt to enter this into the emulator on my phone

adb shell chmod 777 /data/local/gfree

and it doesn't do anything
[G2 and Desire Z General] ianmcquinn:
You are supposed to do that command from your computer. (The instructions state "On the computer, open terminal and type the following commands".) Here, terminal means the command prompt that you've been running all of you other ADB commands from.

If you wanted to run the command from terminal on your phone, you would just type "chmod 777 /data/local/gfree".
[G2 and Desire Z General] trance2315:
You don't need ADB for G2s.
[G2 and Desire Z General] 901-Memphis:
Can someone link me a better guide for my G2 so that i can try this 1 more time ?

Maybe a link to the top choices for versions of android to run once i get it rooted?
[G2 and Desire Z General] ianmcquinn:
Did the command not work when you tried it from your computer? The guide you linked to works fine if you follow it correctly, and you are really only a few commands away from completing the process. A lot of people have problems getting ADB running to begin with when trying to root, but you've already crossed that hurdle. Now it's just a matter of typing in the commands as instructed.

If you don't want to use ADB, check out my earlier post. I linked to a guide I wrote for getting permanent root without it if you really want to try something different.
[G2 and Desire Z General] 901-Memphis:
Okay i was wrong before. The error it gave me was while trying to run in the windows cmd line.

This is the error i get when entering some of the last files
[G2 and Desire Z General] 901-Memphis:
Okay i tried it your way and i believe i am successful in rooting the phone.

I am a bit of a novice on the roms and kernal things so if you can give me any beginner info i would appreciate it.

So i have the two pack from Tmobile that they sold me comes with anti-smudge ones, but they are getting scratched up rather quick, are there any more scratch resistant protectors or @ 2/$15 are these good?
[G2 and Desire Z Accessories] NoFears64:
I use Invisable Shield by Zagg and its sweet, touch works the same after its on, i think it helps glare from the sun but maybe thats just me. But make sure you read the instructions, make sure its placed just right the first time, if you take it off and try to place it again after it sets the first time its gonna be super hard to place it just right again, good luck on that one... but overall i think its an awesome protector, it has a lifetime guarantee too!
[G2 and Desire Z Accessories] BoscoTM:
I'm currently using the Skinomi screen protector, and it works perfectly. No finger drag when using the screen, and they have a lifetime warranty. To test this, I emailed them and said that my screen protector already have a huge noticeable scratch on it, and they just asked for my shipping information and sent me a completely new package! Wonderful customer service, I recommend it.
[G2 and Desire Z Accessories] mannyftw:
Yep, rockin the Skinomi as well. It's excellent.
[G2 and Desire Z Accessories] brfield:
There are so many available! I like Zagg, but I hate that they charge $5 for a replacement, and they peel mad fast!
[G2 and Desire Z Accessories] plasmadragon007:
I use best skins ever and would never use anything else. They don't peel easy, don't charge a lot for shipping, are pretty cheap, and pretty scratch resistant. Kept my Nexus One in perfect condition from day one.
[G2 and Desire Z Accessories] FinHD:
I have Zaggs Invisible shield on my Z. Very durable(it will most likely outlast the phone itself). Maby a little pricey if you compare it to the cheap ones, but in the other hand the phone is quite expensive too. Fitting the is easy as long as you follow the insructions.
[G2 and Desire Z Accessories] havingadump:
I have a Zagg one on my Z like some others here. I had one on my G1 from day 1 as well, and it is still on it and scratch free. The varnish is peeling off all over the rest of the phone, but the screen is perfect. It is a shame they charge so much, but it is worth the money. I had the peeling problem with the body of my G1, but the screen stayed on just fine, so I just bought the screen protector for the Z.
[G2 and Desire Z Accessories] gbarayah:
I used Zagg in the past on many different devices and it is a great product. Protection is top notch but for touch screen devices, the protector is a little thick for my tastes. Don't like the way my finger 'drags' on the screen with the ZAGG.

Currently have the Skinomi on my DZ. Works excellent. Same amount of protection, a little thinner and the touch feel is great. Can't even tell that there is a protector on the screen. Lifetime warranty, haven't had to use it yet. After 3+ months still looks the same as the day I installed it. Highly recommend.
[G2 and Desire Z Accessories] corster:
I started with a Zagg full body... hated the way it felt on the screen.

Replaced it with a Skinomi, it feels great but it's got pretty scratched up in the month and a bit I've had it installed.

I have a Clairvue sitting around here which I'll stick on once the Skinomi scratches start to annoy me... will report back then.
[G2 and Desire Z Accessories] DarkPyroGuy 09:
Zagg, i will never go with another brand
[G2 and Desire Z Accessories] gee one:
+1 Zagg

I started using their Invisible Shields on my G1 and it still looks great. I've gotten a few replacements and haven't had any issues with the warranty.

One issue (and this probably happens with all full body covers) is that the rounded corners eventually lift up a little and collect lint. It's not too bad with the G2, but the G1 had some pretty tough corners to cover.
[G2 and Desire Z Accessories] dkmurphys:
I have to agree with guys and +1 for Zagg. I bought one of these the same day I purchased my Desire Z:

This shield is amazing and I have never had any problems. I had the professionals at the store install the shield as well, so they guaranteed that their installation would produce zero bubbles or they would replace it. As a Canadian I went to Future Shop and it was great and I couldn't be happier with any other 'case'.

I found that if you're careful for 24 hours following your case installation, you shouldn't have any problem getting the case to stick around the corners. Also as long as you're nice to your phone you shouldn't have the corners lift up.
[G2 and Desire Z Accessories] chobie:
Clarivue!!!!! or StealthGuard. Zagg products are overpriced in my opinion.
[G2 and Desire Z Accessories] umaro:
I got a stealthguard for shipping (first class mail, 3 days or so), have had it for about a month.

Application was good after watching the videos involving a drop of soap.

Hasn't come up at the edges, no scratches. It does seem to do a little bit of "self healing" for dings.

I am only using the screen protector, didn't use the other parts of the cover.
[G2 and Desire Z Accessories] bstylz911:
I bought the PRIVACY SCREEN PROTECTOR from t-mobile. When I received it, it was too big for the g2. So I had to cut it down to size. Touch response with the screen has to be pressed harder.

But the privacy part of the screen is perfect..
[G2 and Desire Z Accessories] Steveo1288:
I thought Zagg was where it's at....and they are ok but Ghost Armor is king now. I got 2 full body sets for 24.99 and it looks absolutely great. Doesn't have the orange peel feel like the Zagg and is wayyyy easier to install. They are smart and tell you to get some water and put some soap in it and submerge the shield in it before putting it on the phone. This is where Zagg only sends you spray. Your results are that the Ghost Armor goes on so much easier, slides perfectly into place, and has no bubbles at all. The results with the Zagg are kinda different. You could do the same thing with the Zagg (soap water), but of course they don't tell you that, so you end of trying to use as little spray as possible. This results in you having a harder time putting the shield on. So all in all, they are very similar, but I like the Ghost Armor better because its cheaper, easier to install, looks great and has the best method of putting on your shield.
[G2 and Desire Z Accessories] sinmantx:
I'm currently using the Skinomi screen protector, had it for about a week now. I had the T-Mobile one and the clarity is much better with the Skinomi one. No issues yet.... The best thing was it was only about 3.50 shipped from Amazon.
[G2 and Desire Z Accessories] tackleberry:
Last time I bothered with a screen protector was when the storm 1 came out on verizon. I ordered it from seidioonline.com and it was easy to put on and lasted a long time.

I did get screen protectors for another phone that verizon sold...I went thru all 3 of them in the pack just trying to put the stupid things on. Waste of money right there.

I have not used a screen protector since. And never found the need to have one in over 3 years. So I say don't waste the money

I'm having trouble with my FFC. I installed it as per the thread in the development forum and did all the steps and then some, but when i go to use the i9000 camera app it says "camera failed". I thought maybe the camera was broken but i downloaded the mirror app from the market just to make sure and when i booted it up it worked just fine and the FFC worked great. im baffled and could use a little help with this. I'm running bionix v 1.2.1 with the voodoo kernal
[Vibrant General] oka1:
Make sure the camera apk is the right one. This is a very easy install, shouldn't have problems. There were a couple of roms that had compatibility issues but i do not think the bionix is one. You could try the Axura 2.29 version if it is still available it has the camera apk already loaded in the rom. That way you can make sure it is not the phone.......or maybe you might like the rom
[Vibrant General] rdozier52:
Yea dude make sure u have the right one. The camera file I used was a i9000 zip file and I used clockwork to install it. Also make sure u have the app SGS tools. From there u can change the ro prop model number to GT-i9000 this will let u use tango and fring..

yea but for me i dont mind i cant wait. no pre-order for delivery though. Might just order from wirefly. there isnt many stores where i live right now.
[Xoom General] Slimgym20:
Someone said Wirefly requires you keep data service for at least 6 months - not sure though - something to check into if you don't plan on keeping data.

I'll be pre ordering mine tomorrow! - Though its probably not necessary as lots of places near by will be getting them and I doubt there will be a huge amount of people waiting to get one at the current price - but just to be safe haha.
[Xoom General] socomdark:
thats only for under contract deals. ive ordered from them before so i know the process. when you order a device at a subsidized price (lets say an evo) you can get it at a lower price than other places. At Sprint its on sale for 199 but if you get it at wirefly then its 149.99 with a 2 year contract. The thing is you have to have their service uninterrupted for 6 months or you pay an ETF. With something thats not in a contract you are only obligated for that one month and you are out of their hands.
[Xoom General] Slimgym20:
Yeah that makes sense, I just thought I read that someone said Wirefly requires they own 2nd party contract for 6 months - I was glancing through quickly and didn't pay much attention though :)
[Xoom General] jvs60:
Give them a call or live chat. You must keep the data plan for at least 6 months, or be charged $300 Wirefly ETF
