Hi,

I do not want wifi or camera compiled nor their libraries or anything related built into system.img.

How do I go about doing that?

I've tried commenting out camera from product_packages in generic.mk and although the camera icon was not present, I could download another camera app from market and it would work.

Regarding wifi, I do not know where to modify at all. :confused:

Can someone point me in the correct direction?

Thanks :o

Hi Guys, I'm trying to get my Streak to access my companys network via my laptop (USB connection), but I can't figure out how to do it. Basically, my laptop (XP) has a VPN client on it, and I need the Streak to route internet traffic through it. Is this possible? It was automatic with WM.
[Streak 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] freco:
You cannot access your network via USB connection from Streak to PC. It doesn't work like this with Android.

You can connect via Wifi and "see" shared network files with a file explorer program or share your mobile internet to your PC (teether).

I 'm not sure what you actually want to do.
[Streak 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] crashDebug:
I get what you mean. Sort of usb tethering from laptop to phone like in winmo's activesync software. I am afraid you just cannot do this on android.
[Streak 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] popeye2755:
ok, thanks for the reply.
[Streak 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] william58:
Not true. I did if fine with PdaNet with my Sony Experia X10 which is a android phone. However I can't get it to work with the Streak.

The errors will tell you what is wrong with the setup. Usually, you will run the RUU and leave it. Sometimes you need a Goldcard for it to bypass the verification. There are also a few guides around the forums that tell you how to get it back to how it was.
[Desire General] angusc:
Have a read of this thread..... it had some good links and tips regarding gold card and device recovery.

If you want to return you desire, just download .exe ROM from htc.com, and setup it, with HTC Sync installed, it will remove all changes, so it will be fully warranty.

My phone is to slow for flash. When I use setcpu at 13000 then flash runs smooth. Is there an app that I can set where it will only boost the cpu to 13000 when flash is being used?
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] slowz3r:
nope,

reason it runs so choppy is that hummingbird has no hardware acceleration for flash an vice versa

Phone: LG P500h - ANDROID v 2.2.1 buildnumber FRG83.

Country: Brazil

Anyway, what I know is that i have to downgrade it to 2.2 in order to be able to root. I've looked through a bunch of tutorials on a bunch of websites but there are a few questions i have about the process that isn't answered anywhere i've looked.

Apparently downgrading requires me to get a stock ROM from LG, there is a topic here for that but it does not have the right ROM for my country, i tried a couple codes but they all got me 404.

Can I just flash any standard ROM from, US maybe, will it work?

And if yes, how do I flash it? Apparently you can do that by booting into recovery mode, but to get there you need it to be rooted which I can't do.

I've read about KDZ and downloaded that but... it crashes a lot in my PC (whenever i try the Read Device) it gives me error and closes the program (windows program not responding dialog).

I'm afraid it might crash in the middle of it if i try flashing and that would brick my device.

Is there a simple way to flash a new ROM? Is that the first thing I have to do in order to get a custom ROM say Ubuntdroid? It says I need a new recovery... but for that I need to downgrade first? It's a lot to do... and I don't really get the order in which I should do it all in...

Can somebody post me a little "do this, then do that, then finally do that" so that I can understand it all finally?

Thanks in advance, and sorry for long post, was trying to be as informative as possible.
[Optimus One, P500, V General] edumazieri:
This shows what happens when I try reading the phone on KDZ... also a little part showing that I got my device to be recognized by windows...

also disabled the LGE modem on device manager, read that if I don't it'll get bricked.

Well it won't let me link the image so... just paste the name together.

[Optimus One, P500, V General] masteryx:
1. Find a suitable v2.2 stock ROM for flashing (link)

2. Use KDZ to flash it (I am not aware of another tool capable of doing that). Try doing that on a PC running Windows XP (important - that's where you're stuck now and I guess you're using Windows 7).

3. Root your phone - search for "z4root" on Market, install it.

4. Install Custom recovery, which will replace your current (stock) recovery mode (link - you may need to create an account on another forum in order to download).

5. Using Custom recovery you can now install any custom ROM and create nandroid backups to restore your phone to a certain (working) state.

You will have to use KDZ again if you ever want to flash a stock ROM, also losing the custom recovery. But you will have no reason to do that, except if you need to take your phone to some warranty repairs.

Good luck!
[Optimus One, P500, V General] edumazieri:
NEW PROBLEM: About step 1... i finally found a way to get my country's rom, but... it's.. the same thats on my device right now, it says V10a_02 and thats the same on my phone (the kdz read phone tells me that) so... won't I just be flashing the same 2.2.1 again?

http://csmg.lgmobile.com:9002/swdata/WEBSW/LGP500H/ABRABK/V10A_02/V10A_02.kdz <---- the rom the topic tells me to get.

How do I know what version of android is in that rom? and if i can't, can you link me to a rom that does?

I found one from another country that the guy said is 2.2... but... will it work if i flash that one? does it HAVE to be for my country? also my model is p500h (the h) is it different from the p500 (different as in flashing p500 without h roms on it will kill it?)

As for flashing it...

I think maybe a computer with win xp will do the trick for kdz.

i've found this post today:

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=944881

is it better to use that than kdz? theres no replies on topic saying "hey it worked" so i'm a little worried, but apart from a few errors it seems to work on my win 7....

i guess the reply would be "i only know kdz, do it with kdz" but i thought i might ask...
[Optimus One, P500, V General] masteryx:
Indeed, I have not tried that method and therefore I can't recommend it. At least KDZ is successfully tested. If you are patient enough to wait for some replies either here or in that topic, you may find out if it works. I would recommend it only if you have no other choice, like if you're unable to try KDZ on an XP machine.

In the mean time, I remembered that a newer version of Custom recovery is available (v1.2) - here. But you still need to download a file and read the tutorial from that other forum I mentioned in the previous post.
[Optimus One, P500, V General] edumazieri:
what about the first part of the post? i think i might have added that after you replied i don't know... asking about the rom i found if it isn't the same i have on my phone. and asking if i can just add another country's one...
[Optimus One, P500, V General] Mithun_srk05:
First backup your data, then download a factory ROM, it doesn't matter which version u download, what matters is the version. Make sure that it's 2.2 and not 2.2.1 or 2.2.2. Follow all the below steps without skippin any, no matter how simple or stupid they are.

Link for shipped ROM - http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=865479

Now download KDZ updater and uncompress it

http://www.4shared.com/file/UleS4dP3/KDZ_FW_UPD_EN.html

Install msxml.msi from the uncompressed directory

Charge your battery to almost full state (I'm not sure, but it can be reason if phone doesn't start)

Turn phone off somehow (remove battery etc.)

Install drivers properly

Get rid of all usb drivers like Nokia, microsoft visual ++ run time environments

Install the LG drivers by selecting the update manager from the lg site

Disable LGE Virtual Modem. In your Windows operating system, go to Control Panel > System > Hardware > Device Manager > Modems > Right click on LGE Virtual Modem and click Disable.

Press and keep pressed "Volume up"+"Return" and connect USB cable to phone

Yellow screen with text emergency mode should appeared

Shake the handset (I know, it sounds ... strange, but it helps for ones, so... why don't try it?) UPDATE: Read some quotes on bottom.

Run KDZ_FW_UPD.exe (Has administrator).

Select Type : 3GQCT (I have one report that CDMA mod works too)

Select PhoneMode : DIAG (in case of fail try EMERGENCY, and as last chance use CS_EMERGENCY)

I Recommend do not switch phone off. There was some people, which done it and after they was not be able to turn it on again. If flashing failed, just select some another mode and try it again, again, try shake/connect disconnect, again, again....

In KDZ file : Choose the ROM file you downloaded in the first step

Press Launch software update

Shake the handset (I know, it sounds ... strange, but it helps for ones, so... why don't try it?) UPDATE: Read some quotes on bottom.

Now Root it via Z4root - http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=833953

Then install custom recovery - http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=844483

Then download n flash any ROM of your choice, I wud sugget install Void or LOL.

Edit :- By the time I replied, many have already replied. Anyways you can check my reply too :-D

[Optimus One, P500, V General] edumazieri:
"it doesn't matter which version u download, what matters is the version."

does that mean it doesn't matter what country or operator the rom is for, as long as it is android version 2.2?

i have one from portugal (not my country) and that one is made for P500 mine is P500H... if that makes a difference i don't know, but i do know that rom is android 2.2. can i flash that one?

i also have one that i got from that topic following the instructions of putting my serial number, it linked me to a rom V10A_02... on KDZ when i try to read my device it says i have V10A_02 too. isn't that the same one i have now? with android 2.2.1? if it is it's very pointless to flash the same rom already in it.

any way to check?

because that is my last doubt ;p
[Optimus One, P500, V General] Mithun_srk05:
Yes.... you can choose any country. I tried the Australian version. Use the below one http://csmg.lgmobile.com:9002/swdata/WEBSW/LGP500/AAUSBK/V10a_00/V10A_00.kdz
[Optimus One, P500, V General] masteryx:
As far as my knowledge goes, the LG P500h you have is the same phone as the P500, only branded for Telus. The hardware should be identical, therefore you may use any ROM designed for the P500 family.

The only thing you may miss if you install a ROM not customized for a Brasil (or South America) network operator is the internet acces point name, thus rendering your phone unable to acces the internet trough its data service connection, but only trough WiFi. Nevertheless, the phone's APN can be configured manually, all you need are the correct settings from your mobile operator and you're good to go.
[Optimus One, P500, V General] edumazieri:
Ok since you guys told me i can go ahead and flash any country ROM i just did and now my device burst into flames and then the flames consumed my apartment.

ok, not. it worked too well actually, i did the kdz procedure on my win 7 anyway, despite the errors when reading device info, and it took like, 1 minute, rebooted, took like 2 minutes on the android screen then it came back, with all my data still there... i thought it didn't do anything but... its now version 2.2

i tried z4root, worked ... got the superuser app and.... i'm happy ^^ thaaaanks!

anyway about the custom recovery thing..

i'm going to install the one in that post you gave me...

but i read something about the best one being clockwork something...

shouldn't i go ahead and install that one?

or can i do everything i need with this one you guys linked?
[Optimus One, P500, V General] Mithun_srk05:
Glad that it worked :-) Install the Amon_RA's recovery!!! Many ROM's for OO won't support clock work I suppose. Amon RA's recovery is neat, I've been using that from the time I had an HTC tattoo. :-)

For your Custom Recovery.... http://androidforums.com/getitnowma...ry-optimus-one-p500-thunderg.html#post1896517
[Optimus One, P500, V General] masteryx:
You can do anything you need with ThunderG. Now that version 1.2 supports backup and restore of ext4 partitons (a feature you don't need if you don't plan on installing a custom ROM... but you will, eventually :p ), it is complete.

Moreover, in ClockworkMod's first topic says: "This recovery will not allow you to flash every ZIP file". ThunderG does, if you choose to allow flashing of unsigned zip files. Sometimes this is useful.
[Optimus One, P500, V General] edumazieri:
Peeeeeerfect

Recovery installed, LOL ROM installed, all fast smooth and error-free.

no more screen touch lag, it's soooooo much faster now, overclocked, i have yet to test my emulators but i can only guess they're gonna be at least 150% better lol.

thank you all very much for taking the time to help me ^^

ONE LAST QUESTION: I PLAN ON BUYING A NEW SD CARD, JUST PLUG IT IN AND IT'LL FORMAT THEN CREATE THE NEEDED FILES THEN I INSTALL STUFF BACK ON IT, SIMPLE AS THAT?
[Optimus One, P500, V General] Jaylapeno:
Simple as that =D

Although there are some criteria with the sd card or you'll get unmounting problems.

Use a class 4 or higher card

format with fat32

I've never officially tried this method but its apparently supposed to help

allocation unit size: 64kb when you're formatting

I´m brazilian too, got a brand new LG Optimus One from ViVo, and a want to know if you´re having any troubles with conections, calls, internet, 3G etc.

Any idea?!

Ok, I´ve flashd it with KDZ and the log show´s thats all ok

[Defy Android Development] priyansh17:
Hi,

For last two weeks I have flashed my defy with all available froyo mods....be it pays...or aldxmod or even chinese versions......they work like charm..(especialy the first two)...but one common problem with froyo roms is the fast draining battery.....i used to have a lot better backup on my stock 2.5.1 SEA rom.......

i am not able to figure it out....whether its due to the 3g fix i have used to improve the network reception or its meant to be like that.......but all of the time i used to think that froyo is less on resourcess and thus should give better backup than eclair.....

thanks in advance for any help.....i might rollback to my stock rom as its not always possible to keep the phone connected in office hours....
[Defy Android Development] nupi:
I see this as well like 12 run time with light use brings it down to 30-40%

No problem here with the UK Froyo SBF. I do not overclock/undervolt, nor have I modified this ROM in any way. Currently I am on 60% battery, after being unplugged for 45 hours.
[Defy Android Development] priyansh17:
maan thats awesome...i was reaching to 40% post 7 hours of unplugging and no substantial usage......

i guess the fixing of baseband for indian network is killling my backup.......

guys.....i keep my internet connection switched on 24x7.....its a 2G service as we are in process of getting 3G services in India.......can this be reason for my poor backup???

please advice...

i m now on deblur finland moto froyo......still the same issue....battery drains very fast almost 10% per hour....:mad:
[Defy Android Development] Peglezn:
Nice I was hoping a topic like this one will pop up :)

with my 2.51 I ussually got around 2days 10hours out of it

(thats with undervolt/overclock (300/16 & 1000/56)

yesterday I flashed jboogie's froyo and i didnt overclock yet

Ill post results later :)

but naenee's result is reaaly amazing

60% battery after 3days(and no oc/uc) Id like to see a screenshot of that aswell :D
[Defy Android Development] Peglezn:
I dont think thats the reason, i think 2g uses less battery then 3g ...not sure though :)
[Defy Android Development] priyansh17:
then my gut feeeling says..the 3g fix for 850/1900 frequecy which i patched is making my phone exert high.......coz all the feedbacks with high back up are in countries where they dont need this fix......

just an assumption to condole myself.....i as i now trapped by upgrading my defy to froyo by flashing froyo sbf....cant downgrade....

i m so happy.....i screwed my darling defy.... ;)
[Defy Android Development] Peglezn:
then uninstall the fix (reflash) if u think thats the problem?

ot try restoring 2.51 nandroid image if battery was so much better there?
[Defy Android Development] priyansh17:
man...didnt you read when i said...i m not able to downgrade....

other wise could have done this long ago....

m still trying hard to find the way to roll back....

still thanks for the advice.....

i figured out one more possible issue.....i have used 3g fix for china...no fix available for india...may be that is leading to poor backup.....

guess have not option now but to live with this....
[Defy Android Development] MadStu:
I also noticed this problem, but as soon as you install the "juice defender" app it increases battery life considerably. I overclock mine to 1100mhz and it lasts 3 days before battery get's low enough to need to charging.
[Defy Android Development] Peglezn:
u cant downgrade with .sbf

but u can restore the nandroid image of 2.51 if u made the backup or someone elses?

or am I wrong?
[Defy Android Development] AgentSmith:
Here in Thailand we also don't have 3G yet (apart from Bangkok) but my Defy lasts at least 2 days when I don't use it. And I have wifi on 24/7 as I don't have an unlimited data plan with my provider yet. I switched the radio to 2G only which gave me a little extra battery time but not so much that I would expect the same battery drain as you do. Are you sure it's the radio that is causing this? And why don't you switch it to 2G only? As long as there is no 3G network at least you might get decent uptimes.
[Defy Android Development] martin.flory:
Hi! do you have apns configured or no mobile data? wifi, gps on/off?

UK froyo has blur?

I would like to know how do you get such amazing times.

I have adlxmod f4d with 3g fix (850/1900) and can't get it to last more than one day. I listen to music several hours a day, but it seems to be using a lot of battery to remain in standby with only a few apps with sync.
[Defy Android Development] priyansh17:
EUREKAAAA!!!!

Well well well.....i made some breakthrough....hope it works....

i managed to extract the radio files from my stock nandroid backup by using unyaffs......have flashed my rom from the same......till now the network is working like charm....i m on adlxmod currently........

will now charge the phone to 100% and then will kept under observation.....will update the findings (& fix if it works) on the post.....
