[G2 and Desire Z General] menhir:
Hi there,

I tried if it is possible root on stock ROM 1.82.405.1 on HTC Desire Z. YES, we can!

This is a little "how to" with all previous roots and updates from "1.34.." to actual 1.82.405.1 stock ROM:

Permanent root on HTC ESIRE Z using linux

Software No. 1.34...

Necessary files:

adb (Android SDK)

gfree_02

psneuter

Terminal emulator (Android)

Optional files:

gfree_verify

Settings on Phone:

Menu-Settings-Applications-Development-USB debugging [yop]

USB connected to PC – only charge (card not mounted to PC)

Procedure on PC:

Check your device is properly conneted:

$ ./adb devices

It has to be like this : SH0BFRT00451	device

Than continue:

$ ./adb push su /sdcard/su

$ ./adb push Superuser.apk /sdcard/Superuser.apk

$ ./adb push rage /data/local/tmp/rage

$ ./adb push busybox /data/local/tmp/busybox

$ ./adb push root /data/local/tmp/root

$ ./adb shell chmod 0755 /data/local/tmp/*

On Android:

Launch Terminal Emulator

$ /data/local/tmp/rage

Wait for the message: "Forked #### childs."

Menu > Reset Term - Terminal Emulator will exit.

Launch Terminal Emulator, it Force Closes. Launch a second time, and you'll have a root shell

Procedure on PC:

$ ./adb push gfree /data/local

On Android:

# cd /data/local

# chmod 777 gfree

# ./gfree -f

# sync

# /data/local/tmp/root

# sync

there can be some errors with directory create – it is ok.

update to 1.72 via system and do following again:

./adb push su /sdcard/su

./adb push Superuser.apk /sdcard/Superuser.apk

./adb push busybox /data/local/tmp/busybox

./adb push root /data/local/tmp/root

./adb shell chmod 0755 /data/local/tmp/*

./adb push psneuter /data/local/tmp/psneuter

./adb shell chmod 777 /data/local/tmp/psneuter

./adb shell /data/local/tmp/psneuter

./adb shell

Finally execute this inside the shell you opened with the previous command >adb shell<:

/data/local/tmp/root

restart mobile and you have root....

update from 1.72 to 1.82 via system and again root:

./adb push su /sdcard/su

./adb push Superuser.apk /sdcard/Superuser.apk

./adb push busybox /data/local/tmp/busybox

./adb push root /data/local/tmp/root

./adb shell chmod 0755 /data/local/tmp/*

./adb push psneuter /data/local/tmp/psneuter

./adb shell chmod 777 /data/local/tmp/psneuter

./adb shell /data/local/tmp/psneuter

./adb shell

Finally execute this inside the shell you opened with the previous command >adb shell<:

/data/local/tmp/root

restart mobile and you have root....

Superusere error is patchable by this:

[G2 and Desire Z General] CedricAnne97:
But do we need to be already on 1.82++ or do we need to downgrade to 1.34++ because I don't really understand what we have to do!

PS: really really thank you!!!!! (all other root methods failed for me, so fingers crossed that this one will work!)
[G2 and Desire Z General] Mnemoch:
You need to have S-OFF; if you don't you need to go to 1.34 to get it, then upgrade back up the chain...
[G2 and Desire Z General] CedricAnne97:
oh, thanks... I guess I'll have to downgrade then, wouldn't I :P
[G2 and Desire Z General] Mnemoch:
I guess so, but should only have to do it once...

I rooted my 1.72 device a while ago with this tut: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=905261

Should I be fine by just executing the latest part off this tut?

update from 1.72 to 1.82 via system and again root:

./adb push su /sdcard/su
./adb push Superuser.apk /sdcard/Superuser.apk
./adb push busybox /data/local/tmp/busybox
./adb push root /data/local/tmp/root
./adb shell chmod 0755 /data/local/tmp/*

./adb push psneuter /data/local/tmp/psneuter
./adb shell chmod 777 /data/local/tmp/psneuter
./adb shell /data/local/tmp/psneuter

[Click Android Development] carkev:
which, if any, roms for Android v2.1 up have a working Camera, Wifi and GPS ?

I would love to upgrade my wife's Tattoo to 2.1 or 2.2,

but cannot decide if any of those roms on here actually have a working camera

these are must have for her, and I did see in one post that none of them do have camera working.

believe me I have searched ... but cannot make my mind up either way !
[Click Android Development] dancer_69:
Camera don't fully working on tattoo froyo and gingerbread custom roms yet.

At this time you can take and save photos, but no video and no preview yet.

The developers working on this though and I think that very soon we will have a fully working camera.

All other hardware(FM radio too) work fine.
[Click Android Development] carkev:
thanks for that ...

I really appreciate the work of developers, and it will be well worth the wait

[Windows Phone 7 General] thesecondsfade:
Has anyone heard this news? http://blog.taotaotech.com/2011/03/07/govoice-will-be-completely-free-soon/. A quick quote from Nick's blog post:

I for one, believe this is not good news. What does everyone else think this means for GoVoice?
[Windows Phone 7 General] FiyaFleye:
How can that not be good? If its ad-driven then its been proven to be the best way to go..

Having actually read the link now... I'm not sure what to think, he really doesn't even give a reason for scaling back, I figured he was just switching the revenue method, but he's eliminating the most important features altogether
[Windows Phone 7 General] thesecondsfade:
The reason I think it's bad is because he seems to have given up on it. It's easily the best Google Voice app on the WP7 marketplace and I just don't want to see it become obsolete if Google changes its API or something.

If he makes the only available version ad-driven, what about those of us who paid for the app? That'd be a little ridiculous to now have to see ads. He's going to make everyone see ads and not give refunds to those who paid to not see ads?
[Windows Phone 7 General] foxbat121:
My take: it is cost prohibitive to maintain a dedicated push server with the increasing demand in bandwidth. His ISP or hosting provider is probably making a killing for his monthly service bill.
[Windows Phone 7 General] thesecondsfade:
That sounds like a reasonable assumption. I just hope we don't lose push for GoVoice altogether.
[Windows Phone 7 General] FiyaFleye:
With everybody who has paid for the app he shouldn't have a problem. There are numerous alternatives than hosting it off a home server and they're all decently cheap, Beezz has proven this on a free, ad-free application...
[Windows Phone 7 General] foxbat121:
Obviously it does cause a problem. Hosting is all about how much bandwidth you use. If you use enough to catch the eye of your ISP, your server will be immediately terminated or you will be billed $$$. Besides, hosting in your home is violating your service agreement.

So, it is either he had too few paid customers to cover the hosting cost or too many that his bill just went astronomical.

Besides, you all just paid one time for the app. He has to pay his service provider every month.
[Windows Phone 7 General] FiyaFleye:
Did you quote my post without reading it?
[Windows Phone 7 General] foxbat121:
I would ask the same question to you.

I once hosted a small 17KB DLL on my ISP's web server as a freeware download and a month later received warning letter from my ISP to take it down or pay $$$. This is not even my own server, but the free web hosting server of my ISP.

What GoVoice should have done in the first place is to offer the Home Server web app for free for anyone who wants to host it for himself (and may be a few friends), sort of Bring Your Own Hosting instead of taking on all the load on his own server.
[Windows Phone 7 General] emigrating:
Bandwidth is cheap - setting up a VPS or colo-server to handle all the notifications you could ever doesn't have to cost you more than say $30/mnt - and that leaves you plenty of room for future growth. If an app doesn't pull $30/mnt it's not worth maintaining TBH.

Also, hosting on your residential pipe doesn't necessarily violate your ISPs T&Cs. My ISP allows me to host any type of server I wish and I push, on average, about 1TB of data thru my pfSense each month. The company connection averages around 30Mbps 24/7 and runs me roughly $150/mnt although that plan allows me upto 100Mbps 24/7 (and includes a dual Xeon 8GB 1TB dedicated server).

Hi all. I am having trouble with rom manager. I came from a droid incredible where I used rom manager pro. Now that I have a Dx I downloaded the program and pro version again. However it still thinks I am using a dinc. If I go to download a rom it gives me the list for the incredible rather then the X. Can anyone point me in the right direction to fix this?
[Droid X Themes and Apps] gmenfan83:
when you open rom manager there will be a icon all the way up top that says flash clockworkmod recovery ,,,,hit it and it will ask you for your device name ,,,select dx and then it will take a second and you will be good to go

do i have to delete cache partitions in the recovery mode first
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jstalford:
If you are coming from CM6, I would wipe, cache, dalvik and data when you flash CM7. CM7 is updated "nightly," hence the term. The only other file you need to flash to run CM7 is Gapps. Just make sure you flash the latest gapps (0307) if you are flashing nightly 14. You should flash them in the same recovery session.

Once you are on CM7, when new nightly's come out, you can flash them on top of your current CM7, but it is best to do a nandroid backup before you do in case it messes something up. I also always wipe cache and dalvik before flashing over, although I don't think you have to. Also, if you flash, say nightly 15 over nightly 14, you need to flash gapps again in the same recovery session, otherwise your google apps won't run properly.

[WebOS Software and Hacking General] rwhitby:
The premier information site for homebrew and hacking on webOS devices is at:

http://www.webos-internals.org/

It is a community-maintained wiki, and hackers are welcome and indeed encouraged to post new legally-obtained information there by creating a new wiki page and linking it into the existing site at the appropriate place.

If you have a webOS device already, you can download the Preware Homebrew Documentation application from the official app catalog (yes, Palm allows documentation of how to hack your device in the official app catalog). That will show you how to install Preware, and get access to thousands of homebrew applications, themes, OS patches and custom overclocking kernels. In the help section of that app is a comprehensive list of sites for webOS users to access community assistance.

A lot of the homebrew packages are built from source code released at

http://git.webos-internals.org/

Hackers will find source code there for custom webOS services that run as root, and for overclocking kernel patches. Everything there is open source, to be built upon by other developers.

Note that all of the above is done without breaking any copyright laws or illegally redistributing proprietary copyright material. It would be good to keep it that way. Time will tell how what conventions of legality are enforced by the moderators on these new XDA webOS forums.

Hopefully this new sub-forum brings new developer attention to WebOS. I feel like it really is an under-appreciated platform. I would love to see how far people can take the OS. :D
[WebOS Software and Hacking General] etx:
It is, for sure. It's like that great band that everyone knows, but you never hear it on the radio. I'm counting on it to take off with the release of new hardware, in the usability department it's really second to none. Add openness and all the goodness of a real linux platform and you get a rockin platform.
[WebOS Software and Hacking General] drizek:
Mostly by Palm IMO. People generally love the platform, but I can't blame anyone for not wanting to buy this terrible hardware. ANd while the UI on WebOS is great, Palm still has work to do when it comes to getting things like battery life right.

I just wish they would have put WebOS on something like the Galaxy S II. 1650mah battery, giant beautiful screen, super fast hardware. It would just be perfect, but instead they choose to put it on tiny little novelty phones that while cool, are useful for little more than making jokes about.

After unlocking my phone with ChevronWP7 and now my screen goes black during a call and is unusable. The connection is fine, but its like my proximity sensor is doing its job even when the phone is away from my face. I checked and there is nothing physically blocking my sensor. I have to wait for the other person to hang up, then my phone shows the lock screen. I did a reboot but this didn't fix the problem. I don't know if this is device specific but I'm running an HTC HD7 without the software update. Here's everything I did after the unlock:

[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ppalbicke:
I would post this in the Android Development, but cannot since i have not posted much.

Aaaaanyway, seen an issue that other are having with the rom that I would like to fix if I can. Camera will not go into video recording as it FC's every time. Same with if you try barcode scanner and the likes.

So far I have reflashed, deleted email.apk, camera.apk, camerafirmware.apk, tried hacked camera.apk, stock.apk, blah blah.

Wondering if someone found a different cause and or solution.

Was using Serendipity but not sure I ever noticed if it was aproblem since I barely use these functions these days.

Was fine when it was stock (way back when).
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] watsa:
Since you have deleted Email.apk you are having this problem. Advice you to not delete apps that are needed for the ROM to function properly
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ppalbicke:
Sorry..

Misunderstood.

I noticed that in your thread to give it a try, that it worked for some people so I did, not that it happened after I did.

Wow that sentence looks retarded.

Lets try it again. Had the camera and barcode issues THEN tried the above.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] watsa:
Ok let me take a step back. Do you mean that just after a fresh install you are facing this problem? I mean you havent restored apps+data using Tibu etc?

Edit: people who had problem either deleted Email.apk or CameraFirmware.apk and thats what my first impression was
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ppalbicke:
Oops, misunderstood that post on the email delete.

Anyway, I have reflashed with no luck to the fix.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] watsa:
I am running the same version 3.3 right now a fresh flash and just recorded a video.. Let me know if you used Tibu to restore apps+data.. thats my next guess
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ppalbicke:
Yes

Correct. Issue still after re-flash, no TiBu yet.

On a seperate note, I really like the rom. Looking forward to the possible blue theme. Came from Serendipity which I liked as well.

Don't necessarily need these functions (I barely use them), I just like to have things fixed.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] watsa:
Ok now one last thing that i can try would be to request you to download the ROM package again.. ODIN back to JF6 for a fresh install.. Flash the fresh downloaded package and see what happens.. you may have a bad download is my last guess
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ppalbicke:
Will do

I will try another re-flash.

What do you thing Tibu is messing with (if that is it)?
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] watsa:
it might just affect if by mistake any system app or data is included in the list which can cause camera to FC

EDIT: PM me if you cannot stil get camera to work. Would be happy to help
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ppalbicke:
Still reflashing. I will let you know how it goes.

Again great work on the ROM. I am just being a perfectionist on something I barely use.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ppalbicke:
That did the trick. Maybe bad download.

I will also have to be more selective on what I let TiBu restore.

Thanks and keep up the good work. Again looking forward to Bluebread.

Twingerbread is a nice rom, but has anyone thought about flashing to Apex (i think 5.2 is the latest). Unless i am wrong, it replaced Twingerbread.
