[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] hap497:
Hi,

I have rooted Nexus One which runs on GingerBread. I can open 'adb shell' and then execute 'su' there.

But when I try to 'adb remount', it fails.

$ adb root
adbd cannot run as root in production builds

$ adb remount
remount failed: Operation not permitted

Basically, I want to copy a file from my Desktop (MacOSX) to /system/bin on the device, is there anyway to do that on my Nexus One?
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Jack_R1:
You rooted a stock OS - it doesn't have insecure boot, so ADB doesn't allow remount and other root commands.
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] efrant:
It seems like you are trying a bunch of things without reading beforehand, and understanding what you are doing. As has been said to you before, you cannot use the adb remount command with a secure boot image. If you want read/write access to the /system partition, you need to do the following:

adb shell

su

mount -o remount,rw -t yaffs2 /dev/block/mtdblock3 /system

Now you have read/write access to the /system partition. No you can copy files from your sdcard to the system partition if you want. When you are finished with whatever you have to do, don't forget to issue the following command:

mount -o remount,ro -t yaffs2 /dev/block/mtdblock3 /system

There you have it. However, if you would have read a bit, instead of starting a new thread for each question you had, you would already have found what to do...

Hi all!

I have got an archos 70, and i have installed the vitalplayer app to play the vids with it. but everytime when i play one video, that black lane (where is the home button, back button, search button etc.) is still on the right-side.

So my question is how can i get rid of that, or make it disappear while i'm watching the video?:confused:

Thank for the respond,

Good evening,

would anyone know how I go about opening .img files from the Rom? i have tried "unyaff.exe" but it claims the files are broken image files. I know they're not.

I need to reinstall flickr.apk in order to be able to install the Orange FOTA update.

Failing that, would anyone know where I can obtain the Flickr.apk file?

I am looking for a password / Secrets keeper / safe which is utilizing the fingerprint reader.

I would like strong encrypting and also a master password.

Just think the fingerprint will add a lot to the security.

Any suggestions???

Robert
[Atrix 4G Themes and Apps] Zerxer:
Would actually be pretty neat if some apps came out that utilized the scanner on their own for security. I don't really want to use it as a lock-method for my phone but it would be great for some other things.

Have to wait for a dev to let us know if it's possible to tap into it like that. Pretty sure there's no apps out there now that already do this.
[Atrix 4G Themes and Apps] fincan:
If you want this only to increase security, I can say that fingerprint readers are generally pretty trivial to hack. A long password is better (and I am an information sec. guy).
[Atrix 4G Themes and Apps] live4nyy:
It could be a nice feature for when you're letting someone use the phone and you don't want them looking into certain folders. But I agree as far as total security, you're best bet would be to do a full wipe if it is lost or stolen.
[Atrix 4G Themes and Apps] PiTT:
I started a thread over here:

[Atrix 4G Themes and Apps] ChongoDroid:
That's interesting... could you elaborate? How did you get into that biz? Pretty cool stuff, like a spy :)
[Atrix 4G Themes and Apps] fincan:
It's not like being a spy actually, more like a glorified IT system admin work :)

You can find various ways to do that over the web, basically something like kids putty, gummy bear, or anything that you can mold that has the consistency of human skin, or on really bad ones even a tape can be used to pull the fingerprint and can be used as a makeshift finger to fool these scanners, unless your device have a very high end f.print scanner that checks for the temperature and/or the veins (with an infrared sensor) in the finger so that it can be sure that it is a real finger.

Also there are usually settings on the f.rpint scanner drivers or software to specify how precise it has to scan the finger. If you make that level too high than you will face with false negatives, meaning you really have to scan the finger good and it should absolutely match with your original scan. If you make that threshold level too low it becomes more user friendly (e.g. if the print matches %60 of the original scan, accept it) but also makes it inherently less secure, which is probably what motorola did with our phone's scanner since it rarely gives me "could not scan properly/could not match the f.print" errors even when my fingers are dirty.

I think even mythbusters did an episode about this.

Also don't forget that your fingerprint scanner is as good as your password since there is always a way to unlock the device with the password.
[Atrix 4G Themes and Apps] ChongoDroid:
Man that's crazy... I don't use the pattern any more just because the oil off of your finger is a give away. Wipe er down every time haaha I just keep where's my Droid at all times
[Atrix 4G Themes and Apps] -Roze-:
Yeah same with me, even with a quick wipe, I could still see the pattern on my old nexus one. They's why I live the finger print scanner.

@fincan, can you see if those methods you mentioned are able to by pass the scanner? I want to know how secure it is.thanks :)

[G Tablet Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] familiarstranger:
It's possible. Android would have to accept the usb as an input option. I dont know if anyone has used a usb keyboard. if so then the buttons on the controller would just have to be remapped as keyboard presses. The analog sticks would probably take some work i'd imagine.

[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] newter55:
It is likely a result of your device being seen differently by the market. Product code, build.prop, and csc all can play a role in this.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Dani897:
do you have sgs tools or root explorer? check the ro.fingerprint in the system/build.prop

my current rom is using; ro.build.fingerprint+samsung/GT-I9088/GT-I9088/GT-I9088:2.2.1/froyo/321:user/release-keys

it is working for me. that line in the i9000 build.prop doesn't work for me, if that line is from the i9000 or a leaked froyo it might be the problem.,

edit im not seeing n64oid either now, try ro.build.fingerprint=verizon_wwe/inc/inc/inc:2.2/FRF91/231334:user/release-keys

EDIT; that fixed it for me

also the product code can get messed up in a flash especially if you ever flashed a leaked froyo like ji6 or jj4. look for threads on restoring the efs partition or product code or imei number , you can test if it is wrong in sgs tools with secret codes on the dialer, if they are right then dont bother. i dont know the dialer codes off the top of my head or id write them for you. and the android id can be wrong. everyone had the same android id with ji6 and jj4. after a flash to stock you might want to use android id changer to store a unique id to your phone and restore it after a flash.

[Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] rampart51:
I've been playing around with Google GPS Navigation on my DINC while watching the "data" it uses over 3g. I have a limited data plan so I have to keep my eye on it.

Two things for sure.

1. GPS and Mobile just chew up my battery. (stock kernel w/Redemption 2.3)

2. The Google Navigation seems to chew up a fair amount of data. I suppose that is because it has to constantly update maps.

Are there any hidden settings that will improve my data usage?

I'd like to replace my old car GPS with this but not sure it is practical given the amount of data.

Thx
[Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] donnyp1:
I wouldnt replace your car gps, but, when in towns, ive found that google gps/nav finds newer residences much better than my tom tom. Its a great complimentary gps system. I believe that to be because gmapps updates frequently.

yes, i am one who likes to flash then flush
[Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] shoops5:
all in all i would have to agree. i think having a limited data plan may make this less than ideal at this time. as far as reliability goes i do use my phone as my primary gps, instead of my garmin, and have had no issues. if there are any shortcomings, of which i haven't really found any yet, they are offset by the way the rest of the information (contacts, internet searches for places, etc.) can be integrated with my maps and makes finding places and navigating to them easier.

as for settings to improve data usage with maps, the cache setting is one that i have set to on and it appears as though the app doesn't have to refresh as much. i could be wrong but maybe something to play around with.

I could not locate any file under above name on H2000. They mfr may use a different name like I read in some post nvr_list.nvr or something like that. However I saw a directory named NVD_IMEI containing 3 files. I have no clue what these files are. Normally IMEIs are encrypted and altering IMEI is illegal. I am in the same boat like you but in my case the phone never detected SIM(s) like DOA. I am returning the unit to the vendor as altering anything may void the warranty I have.

To me it looks like an epad Android is loaded and thru some additional patches the unit is made to work as a phone as well. Else I wonder how one will explain your situation that SIMs are not detected after factory reset.

I found that Android Market does not work thru wifi - as I can use only that at present - if the encryption is WPA2-AES but works well with WEP! I could browse well via WPA2.

And different wifi profiles does not seem to be assigned to different wireless networks as my WEP settings like fixed IP, etc except passphrase remained the same on WPA2-AES which uses DHCP and I had to disable fixed IP!. This could be a common problem on all Android sets.

May be some Android expert will help you with flash backup if you could post what exactly the problem that you face when you try to install ROM backup sw.
