oh what an excellent tutorial ?

but i have a question. Is it possible to include an odin rom with the /data (for custom app & /data/system modified files)

Does the command "mmcblk0p2" will dump the correct needed partition.

And if so, if i include data.rfs in the pda odin rom, will it be executed during flash ?

Hope someone will be able to answer me.

Great tutorial though.

Thanks.

EDIT : Seems to be done while dumping / system to factoryfs.rfs.

will investigate further.

Hiya, Im looking to make a .tar with my mod in it for odin.

Can I dd a folder on my sdcard to a factoryfs.rfs and tar it? How?

If not, maybe mount a factoryfs.rfs and replace whats in it with my mod and then nullify it so it gets the right size?

Any ideas?

1 - bad idea to do it on a read/write partition. I agree on the idea to reboot to recovery and use adb.

It would be best to reboot to flash and work completely in offline using the computer to take an image but I don't think that's possible?

2 - at the end of all this we have an image of everything but NOT the user data. If distributing you need to male this clear. Also, because you're imaging everything you need to be clear for people which phones its intended for.

3 - this could be a lot more convenient than having to flash a stock from, root, update, flash new from,, flash kernel, install updates and fixes, install apps...

4 - it could also make things more clear for testing so we know people flashing the same from have the expect same setup (same modem and kernel)

I like the idea, but do it offline.

How does this compare to nAndroid backups?

[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] delicb:
Quick question: How can I know what RUU was on my phone? I know what CID my phone had before I did S-OFF (it was HTC__032) and I know it wasn't branded. Also I know it was 1.32 version, but I don't remember radio version.

I narrowed it down to these two:

RUU_Ace_HTC_WWE_1.32.405.3_Radio_12.28b.60.140e_26 .03.02.15_M3_release_155032_signed

but how can I be sure?

I don't need it now, but I want to download it just in case I need it for warranty.

Thanks.
[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] tkolev:
I think there is no difference from warranty point of view. You could have updated your phone with the official HTC software and this shouldn't void the warranty.

One more thing though - I saw there are .405. ROMs which are branded. I think those are carrier unlocked ROMs but with the operators bloatware on them. So if you had one of these you should probably flash them if you need warranty services.
[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] delicb:
Thank you, you are right about update. Following that logic I could flash any ROM newer then this.

My device was partially branded. It had official carrier ringtone on SD card and bookmark shortcut to there website on desktop. Both of those things I deleted before I root-ed without any trouble so I believe that it won't be a problem to flash stock RUU if needed.

I recently broke my Desire by accidently dropping it onto tiled floor. It seemed that only the screen was broken as the next day the alarm still worked.

I had to send it in for repair and wanted to put my pictures on my computer so I removed the battery and removed the micro sd card.

When I put the micro sd card into a SD adapter and put it into my computer it didnt seem to have all my data on it. I had MP3's, pictures and backup data on there and i cant seem to find any of it. Did I lose all the data?

The picture shows all that I see on the card. Cant understand what happened?

I have been using "Titanium backup for root" to backup and restore my apps, between the million ROM installs :p. However, I find it a bit annoying that you have to hit "Install" and "Done" for each app. And, if you have a billion apps installed :D, it's just pain.

I could always pull the apps from "/system/apps" & "/data/apps" and push them once I flash a new ROM. But would that restore the app data?

[Fascinate General] KitsuneKnight:
I'm having a problem with wireless tethering (using both Wireless Tether and Barnacle) on my Fascinate. Basically, whenever I tether, my 3G connection will frequently drop after about a minute or so (alternating between showing the Dormant icon, but mostly the 3G icon just vanishing from the status bar completely). It'll randomly come back up, but generally it drops again after 10 seconds - a minute. While tethered, even apps on the phone (Browser & TuneIn) will have loads of trouble connecting, but it seems that getting the Browser to refresh a few times will bring it up often enough to bring up the webpage, but it never seems to last more than a few seconds that way.

The moment I un-tether, 3G works totally fine on my phone, without any issues or dropouts (I pretty much exclusively use 3G on the phone). If I retether again, the data connection will drop out within a minute.

I'm currently running SC2.2 (w/ Voodoo), but the same thing previously happened on DJ05 (Blackhole + Voodoo) and DI01 (SC, Stock), although it didn't seem as bad on the Eclair roms, but being a bit random in nature it's hard to tell.

Anyone got any ideas/suggestions? It'd be nice to have some form of tethering working reliably! Thanks!

This happened to me as well. Seems to be an issue with the Wireless Tether app. I switched to using Barnacle for wireless tethering, haven't had any issues since.

[Fascinate General] spyd3r05:
It seems as barnacle doesn't do it as much, however i have seen it several times do it..
[Fascinate General] KitsuneKnight:
Back when I was on DJ05, it seems that Barnacle actually would drop out MORE on me, which is why I switched to Wireless Tether.

I just tried PdaNet yesterday, and it worked completely fine for me over several hours, with zero disconnections (I was streaming or downloading stuff the entire time... and although at times it got fairly slow, it never completely dropped).

Guess probably should look to see how Barnacle/Wireless Tether connect the Wifi and 3G connections. Should try to stream data between the phone and computer while tethered, to see if that remains working even when the 3G drops. That should give at least a general idea of where to look for the issue.
[Fascinate General] 420fan:
I'm getting the same thing and I have tried EasyTether and PDANet. Both seem to get really slow and eventually drop. Wasn't sure if it was me or the what.

running SC2.3 right now, thinking of going to 2.4 voodoo and seeing how that works.
[Fascinate General] ivorycruncher:
As a disclaimer, I don't think I've ever tried tethering after upgrading to EB01. However, on DL09 Super Clean, Barnacle worked perfectly for me, never skipper a beat. As always though, YMMV.

Posted from my EB01 SuperClean Fascinate with Voodoo
[Fascinate General] SeamusTheDog:
The new version (2.0.7) solves the issue for me. I was using barnacle instead because of this issue. I liked it (aside from the cutesy name and icon) but it started flaking out with the new update, so I tried Wireless Tethering for Root Users again, seeing that it had also been updated, and it works a treat on my Verizon Droid 2.

Hi guys.

I have some strange (i think anyway) WIFI behaviour that drives my crazy, im looking for some help resolving it.

My WIFI seems to go into hibernation/sleep even though i explictly set if to never off in the WIFI settings. I notice this problem because my exchange sync fails constantly (only on WIFI, on 3G everthing is perfect). I notice this problem occours when the phone hasnt been used in a while.

After its been in hibernation mode it very slow to get connection again. I open a browser and need to press "refresh" numerous times (about 15/30 sec. i think before this WIFI i "back").

Hi,

I am sorry if this topic previously has been discussed, butI have googled it for some time and haven't found any solutions.

I need to be abla to beam music from one android phone to another, i.e. use the phone as media renderer. I have two old android phones which I use only for sound in my bed room and living room. I would therefore want a way to control these phones from my primary phones. There are some ways to use them as media servera, etc., but I cant't the solution.

Have you tried twonkey media?

It should do the trick... need to install it on both phones, then set one up as the library and the other as the output.
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] drelle:
No, I have already tried Twonky player, but it does not allow me to beam the music from on android phone to another. If have two phones, A and B, I want to be able to control the music player on B, which is connected to the hifi in the livingroom from phone A, which is in the kitchen. Twonky, and other options allows me to stream music from phone B to A, but I want to control the B player, which I am nowhere close to. Does that make sense? It has to work like Gmote, where it is possible to control music from the phone on the computer, but here I want to control the music on B instead of a computer.
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] ambushbug:
Ah, I see. You have a phone connected to your stereo playing music. You want to be able to control that phone with another one wirelessly.

I think you are SOL... I haven't heard of anything like that. You may be able to cobble something together with Tasker and gtalk/sms messages (ie. send a message like "next song" to the other phone that Tasker picks up and performs the action).
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] slice77:
I've been looking for this as well to repurpose my HTC Hero and have finally found it!

An app called ArcMC Media Server and Player (market link) can turn any phone into a DLNA receiver. You can then use your other phone as the server with Twonky or similar. I almost made an additional hardware purchase for this but now my old phone does it just as well.

The app looks new which might explain why no one has found it and the bad review average so far. Also it requires 2.2 which may be a limitation for some. Installing a custom rom can fix that though.

edit: sorry, I may be confused. I want my new phone "play to" my old phone. For that my old phone needed to be a receiver, which Twonky does not do. The media lives on and is controlled by my new phone, I just use my old phone to receive it and output it to the speakers.
