I just know if you use the built-in "3G mobile hotspot" in Cyanogen-mod they are infrastructure and if you use any other from market (like the very good barnacle), they send via ad-hoc.
[Android Apps and Games] jayjr1105:
My friends evo produces infrastructure as well as another friends droid 2 with the same exact tether apk file. But my captivate puts out ad hoc and I haven't found a barnacle release that works right with my phone yet.

I want to try to add a modified PRL to my phone. I tried going into my PRL settings via ##775# and ##775 + ##778 (none of them worked.)

Does anyone know how to do it without using the advanced method posted in developement?

Thanks!

P.S. I'm on Syndicate ROM with the removed Carrier ID. Could this be a problem with accessing my PRL settings?
[Epic 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Triketra:
Imho I would think you would need to be on a stock rom in order to access the dialer code screens. but before flashing try going into your dialer and opening your qwerty keyboard and try entering it that way. I had an issue with ##data# and it opens almost every time when using the keyboard. hope this helps ya, if it does leave me a thanks

Hi,

does anybody knows if it would be possible to get the "clock mode" app from android 2.2 running on 2.1?

Or does anybody knows a good alternative app?

I tried "night clock", but this is way that useful than the original

Just ordered the item below to mount to my headrest for the little one in the back seat. Anyone use one of these before? Seems they sell several which all appear to be the same model, but are different prices.

I'll follow up once I have a chance to test it. Shipping from across the pond so it will probably be a few weeks.
[Xoom Accessories] Aaron636r:
Pricey option.

[Xoom Accessories] dubsjw27:
They make the same one for multiple tablets and/or DVD players as they mention in the product title. Also, the dimensions they quote will fit the xoom.

Oddly enough, they charge different prices different models though they appear to be the same product.
[Xoom Accessories] goldsworthy:
I just put this mount into my car. It works great with the xoom!
[Xoom Accessories] patass:
what is that?
[Xoom Accessories] Aaron636r:
Looks like a http://www.ram-mount.com mount.
[Xoom Accessories] dubsjw27:
It finally came, although just a day after a I was hoping to get it. Haven't had a chance to take a pic yet but it installed in minutes and fit perfectly in my Jeep Grand Cherokee.

There are foam pads on the clips which will prevent any scratching of the screen. The piece that holds the xoom has a spring loaded back which will hold it securly in the mount. Nothing really stopping you from using it with the portfolio case or other protective casing.

The only beef I have has to do with the headrest mount and the part that holds the xoom. They are two separate pieces which work on a slide lock mechanism. I imagine over time this could be an issue. Not so worried because of 14 price tag.

Very sturdy and well made for a $14 headrest mount. More well thought out than the portfolio case :)

Will try to take a pic or two tonight and upload.
[Xoom Accessories] ghoticov:
I would love to see some pics when you get a chance.

any options for someone who wants something quick?

I didn't think about the up coming trip to OBX we are taking next week (6+ hr drive), and mounting the Xoom for my 2.5yr old son to watch movies in the back seat of the GMC Terrain would be awesome!
[Xoom Accessories] rossvtaylor:
Hi KidJoe,

Do you have a case on the Xoom right now? If you're using the Motorola portfolio case, by any chance, there's a sort of channel between the upper and lower sections of the case's back section in which you can nicely fit a small (like parachute or clothesline) cord. Not at all fancy, but it's quick and dirty and allows you to tie the Xoom to a headrest. It may not appear stable until you try it, since the back folds, but when it's tied to a firm object the back cannot fold and the Xoom stays nicely in place. You'll even have access to the charging port.
[Xoom Accessories] KidJoe:
I thought about trying to "loop" something throught he case to "hang it"

I'll give that a shot!

thank you!

Solved. Reverted back to 1.5.0 and it works just fine :)

[Folio 100 General] °EraZoR°:
Hey,

I'm trying to work around with Linux on my Folio a little bit..

I compiled a kernel and build a boot.img and put it into an update.zip..

This works quite nicely but after updating the boot on the tablet the folio reboots and after the "Toshiba loading screen" the display becomes black and nothing else happens...

So I would like to enter fastboot mode to boot my compiled image easier by

./fastboot -c "blabla" zImage

...

But when my tablet is in fastboot mode ("Starting fastboot usb download protocol.." appears on the screen) I can't find it when I type:

./fastboot devices

I also tried this as root but nothing happens.

But lsusb shows my folio:

Bus 002 Device 012: ID 0955:7000 NVidia Corp.

I'm working in Ubuntu 10.04 64bit with ia32-libs installed!

Also tried to connect on my Windows 7 Desktop PC.

The drivers are installed correctly after adding the lines to the .inf file.

But my Folio100 doesn't appear in fastboot devices too..

Hope you can tell me what I can do to connect to my Folio using fastboot..

Greetz

Philipp

//Edit:

Also tried it on WinXP.. But it doesnt work too..

BTW: ADB-Shell works, so I think there is no problem with usb..
[Folio 100 General] mblaster:
You need a recent version of fastboot, best take the one that comes precompiled with the android sdk. The fastboot binary that is still distributed by htc here does not work.

Also don't forget to set the right udev rules (http://developer.android.com/guide/developing/device.html).
[Folio 100 General] °EraZoR°:
I used the fastboot binary from Nvidia's Linux4Tegra package...

I just downloaded the Android SDK again, but there is no precompiled fastboot binary..

I guess the problem is that I'm using 64bit Linux.. I'm also not able to build the fastboot binary...

I used this udev rule:

SUBSYSTEM=="USB", SYSFS{idVendor}=="0955", MODE="0666", OWNER="philipp"

I guess this should work for my Device...

I took the vendor id from lsusb...

Thanks for your post.. I'm not at home atm, but I will go on trying later and edit this post..
[Folio 100 General] mblaster:
Now that you mention it, the binary did not come with the sdk, but was compiled as a side product when I compiled cyanogenmod for my old g1. I am also on 64bit ubuntu (10.10), when I have some time I can upload the binary here, but it may take some time (quite busy this weekend).

Udev rule looks fine. If adb works, fastboot (correct binary) should also do.
[Folio 100 General] weeds2000:
What toolchain (i.e. C compiler) are you using. arm-none-eabi- is not within (my) the source tree

For the kernel builds I do, I use <mvidia-android-source>/prebuilt/linux-x86/toolchain/arm-eabi-4.4.0/bin/

Note, that the black screen is a known issue with FolioMod 1.4.

The kernel will only work on pre 1.4 versions of the Mod.
[Folio 100 General] °EraZoR°:
Okay I got it now =)

Simply replaced the Header file (atomic.h) with the header-file of the original Linux kernel source for arm and now it works and I'm also able to boot normally (with output on screen)

Do you already got the wifi module running?

I checked out the git source @ nvidia and compiled the kernel module for my kernel.

I'm also able to install it via insmod, but the wifi interface doesn't appear in if/iwconfig..
[Folio 100 General] ph84:
Wait a minute... I'm not that fast :eek:

Which source code did you use for compiling fastboot and how exactly did you modify it? What is it about that -i parameter?

I'm trying to do the same thing here, flashing with update.zip got pretty annoying... :-/ especially since im just trying to boot several kernels with several command lines... :-/
[Folio 100 General] °EraZoR°:
I used this source:

https://github.com/tsh/folio100

And fechted the asm/atomic.h from somewhere on the net...

The -i parameter is the USB-Vendor-ID..

You have to provide this parameter to tell the fastboot binary which USB device it has to use..

0x0955 is for Nvidia Tegra...

You can get this string by:

lssub

on Linux or in the Device Manager on Windows..

Im also having problems with Fastboot. I have ADB setup and working for Folio. But now device is ****ed up, i have clockwork rec. installed but when trying to flash it flashes system.img fine but when flashing boot.img it returns an error. So i would like to try and fastboot the boot.img to the device or if that fails i atleast can flash stock recovery so i can send it to toshiba. I put my device in fastboot mode, insert mini usb, computer detects Folio, I update driver to the same as ADB uses but i choose bootloader, it all goes well no error. But when writing fastboot devices in command prompt( from adb tools map) all i get is:

? fastboot

I have had my Folio like this for days now and have an open thread about it here:http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1009587

[HTC Aria General] ValkyrieLiberty:
Which rom is the best?

I like cyanogen, but very much so love my Htc Radio(limited data plan so.....), which one do you use and why?...

(currently cm7)

Also, on cm7 sometimes my bars are green, sometimes white, what does that mean? (any where I can get more specific info on gingerbread?)
[HTC Aria General] mikelebz:
they are white when the connection is not ready yet.
[HTC Aria General] DanGeorges:
There is no one ROM that fits everyone.

There are advantages (and disadvantages) to each.

My opinions, below...

CM7

Advantages:

Latest Android version (2.3.3)

Closer to a generic Android build

Customizable overclocking built in

Very configurable - many options

Built-in features like power bar, line-item clear for alerts, etc.)

Perceived to be faster than 2.2

Better built-in app information and system information support (But I think this is more OS than a specific ROM).

Disadvantages:

No Sense UI - so you won't have an "HTC" experience"

No FM Radio

No Sense Widgets (e.g., FriendStream, Agenda)

Wonky WiFi (sometimes won't reconnect, can't see hidden networks, etc.)

Liberated FR008

Advantages:

Sense experience

FM Radio

HTC Sense Widgets without need for 3rd party apps

Pretty solid WiFi

Can be overclocked (but with 3rd party app)

Disadvantages:

WiFi sometimes wonky, but not nearly as bad as CM7

Not the latest Android release (only 2.2)

Not nearly as customizable as CM7

In the end, for me the choice has come down to whether or not I like Sense, which I do. I also like the FM radio and sorta solid WiFi. I find Sense and FR008 speedy enough for my uses.

For others, maybe not...

Again, just my two cents...

.
[HTC Aria General] dandrumheller:
I believe the color coding on the signal strength meter / wifi strength meter indicates connection (color based on theme) to google servers or lack of said connection (white).

I am using CM7 (currently nightly 11) due to the increased customization options. I tend to like to tinker with stuff, and this gives me the most options. I'm not particularly a fan of HTC sense, so I don't really miss it. Last time I swapped back to a sense rom, I ended up putting an aftermarket launcher on it to get the homescreen customizations I wanted, so I didn't have the one or 2 sense widgets I liked anyway. After that, I decided CM was the way to go, and have been on 7 since the early nightlies, with the exception of a couple weeks ago for a few days. Also, CM7 has a handy feature called phone goggles, which, had I had the foresight to use it last weekend, might have saved me from having to explain a couple of embarassing texts, sent during a state of significant inebriation, to my wife :o
[HTC Aria General] mcquill:
Some differences in addition to the ones that DanGeorges listed:

CM7 (as well as CM6):

-Contacts display more information that are stored in Google account contacts (i.e. CM's contacts app display the "Phonetic name" field and customized email field names that you have for your Gmail contacts, whereas HTC Sense's contacts app only displays some basic fields)

HTC Sense (Liberated FR008 or any other Sense roms):

-Has a proprietary "Flash Lite" that lets you play flash video from browsers and the Facebook app directly; while you can also play flash video on CM roms, you have to use the Skyfire browser and can be a hassle sometimes.
[HTC Aria General] Nutshell69:
CM and Sense email clients are quite different - - - one of the items that keeps pulling me back to Sense.

:(
[HTC Aria General] cHarley04:
I thought FR008 was great, but for me it had the same serious fault as all the other previous Android ROMs, no voice dialing over bluetooth.

Since I ride a motorcycle as my primary transportation both for business & pleasure, a bluetooth helmet with voice dial is a must have. That makes CM7 an easy winner for me.

:)
[HTC Aria General] DanGeorges:
Yes -

CM7's has the advantage of a unified inbox. But no pinch-to-zoom

Sense has pinch to zoom.

My solution:

install the CM7 email client into Sense and I have both running.

[HTC Aria General] bunky213:
Gene Poole's "liberated 2.2.2" has the voice dialling in a sense/froyo rom.
[HTC Aria General] cHarley04:
Are you sure it's Voice Dialing

over Bluetooth

? Froyo had voice dialing, but not over bluetooth.
[HTC Aria General] brswattt:
CyanogenMod 7 hands down.
[HTC Aria General] bunky213:
Definitely, used it a bunch yesterday while I was bottle feeding my son (both hands occupied, phone on table, could only get a finger free to hit button on bluetooth headset)

Worked better than anticipated!
[HTC Aria General] Gene Poole:
Look for a new truly "liberated" version later tonight or tomorrow. It'll have bloatware removed, apn.xml for wifi/usb tethering (without AT$T's surcharge), native sideloading, OC kernel and more. One thing I'm trying my damnedest at right now is disabling that horrible AT$T drop-down over the taskbar.
[HTC Aria General] ValkyrieLiberty:
What exactly is phone goggles?
[HTC Aria General] dandrumheller:
Similar to google's email goggles, when enabled it requires you to do simple tasks (math problems, etc.) Before allowing you to call/text.
[HTC Aria General] bunky213:
awesome! looking forward to it!
[HTC Aria General] DanGeorges:
Sounds cool!

What are the advantages to this version over Liberated FR008?

And what does the at&t overlay look like? I'm curious...

Thanks for doing this Gene.
[HTC Aria General] dandrumheller:
if you are intoxicated, it has a reasonable chance of stopping you from calling/texting someone you shouldn't (like an ex) by:

1) making it difficult for a drunk person to actually accomplish the task and

2) hopefully making you think twice about what you are doing
[HTC Aria General] CallMeAria:
Cyanogenmod...because its the rom of the gods.

(And as far as the radio, give it time. I've been running cm since Aug of last year and at this point I have completely forgotten about the fm radio until it gets brought up on here. I loved it for the two weeks I had it, but I quickly got over it by just getting a bigger sd card and putting a few gigs of music on my phone)
[HTC Aria General] ValkyrieLiberty:
Cool. I love cyanogen (slacker radio barely uses my data) so eh... anyway, a truly liberated? I should want to test it out lol.
[HTC Aria General] Noobla_Khan:
CM7 hands down. It is by far the best rom I have ever put on my Aria.

I haven't tried it yet but I am hearing that the FM radio now works in the latest CM7 nightly which would be build 13 at this time.

EDIT: I can confirm that FM radio works!
[HTC Aria General] cease:
CM7 Latest Nightly R13

If you are ok w/o Sense, CM7, R13 (nightly) is the best by far. And as an update to the above stated disadvantages, CM7 now has a working FM radio and WiFi works flawlessly. No issues at all with latest Nightly. Look for it in this forum under CM7 Nightly Builds.
[HTC Aria General] tpbklake:
OK, time to cast my vote for CM 7. Better BT support with the Voice Dialer app, integrated Inbox for multiple email addresses.
[HTC Aria General] bsaelim:
I wonder if there is any difference in internal storage between the two ROMs. Currently I am running FR008 and the total internal storage is 185 MB (and after installing several apps the available storage is down to 21 MB). I'm thinking of getting CM7 nightly if I have more storage to work with.

Thanks.
[HTC Aria General] cHarley04:
CM7 is not going to help with the lack of internal memory storage space. The easiest way to get more internal storage, is to create a separate "ext" partition on your sd card and then install this app:

https://market.android.com/details?id=ru.krikun.s2e
[HTC Aria General] guido3300:
My vote is for Gene's Liberated 2.2.2 with the original USA Kernel.

Pros:

Blazing fast like no other rom before (you can check a video on the 2.2.2 thread)

Amazing battery life

HTC Sense

FM Radio

Cons

Sense, but only if you don't like it.

I just got home and retried here, different computer, same Zune. It worked! The only difference I did is installed this: MicrosoftFixit50581.msi from http://support.microsoft.com/kb/2484484#ReceiveErrorUpdating because for the first update attempt (from 23 Feb) I was getting the error: C1010007

[Windows Phone 7 General] Peew971:
I finally updated my Omnia 7! :D

- Tried about 4 times: failed

- Deleted all my music (around 8.5GB): failed

- Deleted all my apps except Engadget and Diodict: failed

Next steps should have been to delete games, then accounts, until I would be left with no choice but to do a factory reset.

Luckily I had TweetDeck tracking the error code in case something came up and surely, @dvroegop found a trick: He turned off Wifi then deleted all his pictures and managed to update straightaway.

At this point I had nothing to lose, really wanting to avoid a factory reset (didn't want to lose Engadget, Diodict apps and game saves) so I gave it a go (deleted videos too) and it worked first try :).

Could be pure luck but if you don't want to hard reset it's worth a shot ;).
