Man, I still have HBOOT 0.57.0000. I wish alpharev would finish this already. And I know that's a lot to ask but It's been in development for how long?
[HTC Aria Android Development] drowningchild:
It is finished just not released
[HTC Aria Android Development] jacobas92:
So, the only reason I can't have a software induced S-OFF this moment is because they just haven't released it yet?
[HTC Aria Android Development] mtnlion:
Great ain't it.
[HTC Aria Android Development] drowningchild:
Try to get in contact with them it could help, who knows?
[HTC Aria Android Development] jacobas92:
Well, I looked for contact info and it it just isn't there.

nvm, found contact info

Okay, I sent them an email, hopefully I'll get a reply soon.
[HTC Aria Android Development] Gene Poole:
Let us know. I'm very interested in this too.
[HTC Aria Android Development] Darius_bd:
.

Soooooo, installed AUFS, supposedly... is there a way to find out if it's all right? I was trying Chainfire3D with my Aria but after a reboot it still says that the driver aint installed. I've flashed the AUFS enabled kernel, installed the module and enabled it trough terminal with SU. Bit lost...
[HTC Aria Android Development] drowningchild:
ive noticed somethings just wont work like changing the build.prop for example
[HTC Aria Android Development] Darius_bd:
Meh and why that happens?
[HTC Aria Android Development] drowningchild:
I have no clue??
[HTC Aria Android Development] jacobas92:
I get the strangest feeling I won't get a reply from them anytime soon...
[HTC Aria Android Development] jlayton15:
Haha I hope you do
[HTC Aria Android Development] drowningchild:
+1 i tried irc a few times back

attn1 & ladios said if they(alpharev) stopped on development, they would release their versions of it
[HTC Aria Android Development] jlayton15:
When would they decided that though
[HTC Aria Android Development] CallMeAria:
On a related but slightly off topic note, HTC announced it will no longer be locking their bootloaders! Not sure if this will have any impact on current devices, but its a good sign of things to come.

[HTC Aria Android Development] jacobas92:
Sweet. I hope we get the update. And if we do, I'll feel sorry for all the people who bought XTC clips.
[HTC Aria Android Development] drowningchild:
Highly doubt it
[HTC Aria Android Development] Gene Poole:
There is an awful lot of confusion on just what this means. It's not the "locked" bootloaders that have the dev community in an uproar, it is "signed" boot images. Bootloaders are locked on just about every Android. How easily they can be unlocked is what makes the phones rootable. With a signed boot image, even if you get past the S-ON restrictions and write a new ROM, the boot image will fail the signature check and the boot will halt. This is how a lot of the Motorola droids are designed.
[HTC Aria Android Development] Darius_bd:
The OP of the AUFS thread says we need this as requirement:

"run-parts integrated in init.rc script (/etc/init.d)"

But being the noob I am, cant' find such file in the given address, yet that's part of busy box and its already running a version of it, right?

Just to discard that part and keep asking the OP about it
[HTC Aria Android Development] CallMeAria:
But isn't that what s-off does, lifts the need for signature verification?

Sent from my cm7 Aria.
[HTC Aria Android Development] CallMeAria:
Double post
[HTC Aria Android Development] Darius_bd:
Afaik, no. The S-OFF is just unlocking the nand memory (r/o to r/w) while the bootloader signing is just to verify that the bootloader hasnt been tampered with.

Here an article that may shed some more light:

http://www.androidpolice.com/2011/0...ncryption-signing-and-locking-let-me-explain/
[HTC Aria Android Development] Gene Poole:
Indeed, S-OFF means that all security is off and signatures are not checked, but this is not what is at the core of this debate. Let's take the Aria for instance. Currently even with S-ON, we're able to flash ROMs and kernels because we're able to flash clockwork recovery onto the device in place of the stock recovery. The recovery image is not signature checked by the bootloader so it happily loads and runs clockwork's custom recovery, from which we can load custom ROMs and kernels. Similarly, the boot.img file is not checked at boot time so we can flash custom boot.img files (that's where the kernel lives) and they will happily boot and run. I don't think any devices check the system.img for signatures, but the possibility exists whereby even simple mods like removing bloatware would render the system.img unloadable.
[HTC Aria Android Development] CallMeAria:
Gotcha. But, in the case of the aria, our ability to root was based off of a security exploit...a work around to avoid signature checks. With htc 'unlocking' its bootloaders from here on exploits would no longer be needed. It was my understanding that htc is going to give us the ability to bypass signature checking done by the bootloader (I can't imagine they would just ship unlocked, but rather with the ability to be unlocked) therefore allowing us to root and load custom roms etc.

[HTC Aria Android Development] Darius_bd:
Anyone, please? :/ I even accept "noob!" calls out.
[HTC Aria Android Development] cHarley04:
I haven't installed this, but I take the OP to mean that you just need to flash the listed update.zip file.

I'm assuming that it creates the init.rc.

UPDATE.ZIP WITH INIT.D SCIPTS & AUFS.KO

http://www.mediafire.com/?d66q953fdgd5nzj

.
[HTC Aria Android Development] Darius_bd:
Tak, I did flash the update.zip yet no init.rc was created. In fact, it's supposed to exist beforehand. The thing is I found the init.rc but in / , not in /etc/init.d Now my problem is that I cant make out what does "run-parts integrated in init.rc" means, couldnt find references to that name or to busybox in the script...

Help? :]
[HTC Aria Android Development] mtnlion:
Are you running one of drowning child's kernels.he adds the aufs module there. Then you flash this zip.not sure if his current one had it in it.
[HTC Aria Android Development] drowningchild:
are you using a sense rom?
[HTC Aria Android Development] Darius_bd:
.

Ok, I'll make it clear: I'm running CM7's 93 nightly, with Drowningchild's 7-5 Kernel with AUFS module, flashed the no-kernel AUFS zip and went to the terminal to set it as enabled. Still couldnt install Chainfire3D driver. I asked the AUFS OP what could be going wrong and he told me to check first if I'm having all the requisites, and so far the only thing I dont know if I'm complying is with this "run-parts integrated in the init.rc located in /etc/init.d" as I have no idea how to check that out.

So, I'm asking you guys if anyone knows if this requisite is true? Afaik run-parts is related to Busybox and supposedly I have that installed, but still not sure.
[HTC Aria Android Development] drowningchild:
/system/etc/init.d is there

the file that aufs put in to start the aufs process(not the .ko module) is put in there

& as far as i know some files cannot be overlayed in aufs

eg i editied build.prop but it still read the original on /system
[HTC Aria Android Development] Darius_bd:
Yes, I know, and it's there. For now I'm just running the checklist with the requisites to further inquire Blay0 about why some stuff wont work.

****

Then again, maybe we could just wait for Alpharev...
[HTC Aria Android Development] drowningchild:
thats the file im talking about its a script
[HTC Aria Android Development] Gene Poole:
What that means is that the init.rc file stored in the boot image needs to have the capability of running scripts in the /etc/init.d/ directory. This is a common paradigm on linux systems. This is the place on a linux system where custom software can place scripts to run certain initializations (like setting up environment variables or starting services). This is pretty much the norm on current linux systems, but NOT on the android (at least not the Aria). Because the init.rc file is located on the boot.img and gets copied to the ramdisk at boot, the only way to modify it is to build a new boot.img with the modified init.rc and flash it to your device. Once in place, the new init.rc will now look into the /etc/init.d/ directory for additional scripts to run.

I'm late into this thread so I'm not exactly sure what the hubbub is all about, nor do I know what this has to do with the thread topic, but I hope I can shed some light on it and possibly help you out.
[HTC Aria Android Development] Darius_bd:
Double thanks, you helped me to get what it means ;]
[HTC Aria Android Development] unsivil_audio:
Maybe this is a dumb question, but why would we need this on our phones? I guess I dont understand what you would do with this mod.
[HTC Aria Android Development] Moh_Jay:
To use apps that require s-off such as metamorph.

I consider it one of the best phones on the market. Especially considering it's age. The amount of internal memory on the american HD2's is off the chain.

[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] Kailkti:
Overall yes i would say so. Reasons being you can get it relatively cheap, it has great/modern hardware, able to boot 4 OSes, meaning it can probably suit everyone's needs, stable/smooth/fast.

However the best device in terms of performance? That's hard to say. In android? It's obviously beaten by other 1ghz android devices. WP7? People are saying it beats even the HD7, but are they comparing it to a HD7 with tweaks also or just stock? Ubuntu it obviously can't compare to a real computer. Winmo it is the best.

But as said, its still the best device overall, atleast in my perspective.

[Xoom General] wayne710:
My unrooted Xoom does not want to keep connected to my wifi signal since the upgrade. I did not have this problem before, but now if I set the Xoom down for a minute or so, the screen on or not, and pick it back up it is no longer connected. Sometimes I find I am without a signal when clicking on a link just after entering a web site while actively surfing. I have the wifi disconnect policy set "Never." Is anyone else experiencing more problems since the upgrade?
[Xoom General] mjbeam:
No issues for me so far.
[Xoom General] lchaffinii:

[Xoom General] cradve:

[Xoom General] ZanshinG1:
The only wifi problem I have is the kernel wifi driver memory leak mentioned elsewhere. My xoom will eventually reboot itself if left on wifi overnight.
[Xoom General] mjpacheco:
This really sounds like the WiFi driver leak problem as mentioned before. Your symptoms are exactly what I was experiencing, pre upgrade.

The workaround is to not set the disconnect policy to "Never". Since I have turned that off, I have not seen the problem.
[Xoom General] magicdroid:
Nope... no problem here... tried to restart?
[Xoom General] Sto_Padrone:
Sorry, no problems here with wifi.
[Xoom General] Stone 13:
No problems here either.
[Xoom General] wayne710:
Thanks everyone for all the input.

I must have missed the discussion on the wifi driver leak problem but will do a search on it. If you don't use the "never" setting, which one do you use? It looks like a compromise with the other two settings as I like to have the email and the internet ready and waiting when I turn the Xoom on.

To another suggestion, I have tried rebooting several times.

After further use, it now appears to be an intermittent problem as on occasion today it has not been dropping out.
[Xoom General] synplex:
Im also having this problem since the OTA with my Wireless tether connection.
[Xoom General] Droid-Xer:
The tiamat kernel fixes the wifi issues. Check it out in the dev section

[Desire HD General] samuel2706:
I have been reading around and i can't seem to find any kernel for the latest gingerbread leak the one to hit XDA about 3 or 4 days back, i wondered if anyone knew of such kernel?

For example the OC/UV BUZZ kernel i used before in the android revolution HD 3.1 ROM but apparently now only stock kernels could be used with the new 4.0 Beta 2 ROM (thanks mike) but the question i am asking is can it be done? what is stopping devs from creating a new kernel for this? i can't i haven't a clue what i'm doing when it comes to coding and such ill hold my hands up i'm new.
[Desire HD General] mr.r9:
Why there are no kernels:

1) The source isn't out.

2) There are no drivers.

[Captivate General] sgosnell:
Maybe I'm missing something (probably am, but my searches have turned up nothing), but I can't seem to find any Linux packages for dealing with the Captivate. Odin, etc, and everything I've found, are Windows apps. I don't have, and certainly don't want, any Windows OS on my computers, nor do I want to deal with wine. I'm running Debian Sid, FWIW. Anyone have any pointers to Linux PC tools for the Captivate?
[Captivate General] Shammyh:
Heimdall is a start. Basically a replacement for ODIN.

Other than that, most everything you need should be able to be done on Linux.

What specifically are you trying to do, but can't?
[Captivate General] Pirateghost:
multiple references are abound to Heimdall .... used as an alternative to ODIN for osx and linux
[Captivate General] modest_mandroid:
Yeah dude, all you really need is heimdall and the android sdk. With those two, you should be able to do all the same stuff windows users are able to, unless you're looking for linux versions of all those one-click-root-whatnot programs. If you really insist on using those, you're better off just installing windows in a virtual machine or something.
[Captivate General] sgosnell:
OK, thanks, I'll give Heimdall a look. I don't have to have 'one-click does it all'. I really can't do anything yet, since my phone hasn't arrived yet, I'm just trying to get prepared. I don't want to be limited to the AT&T lockdowns, and I want to be able to load any apps I want, not just what is available from the Market and approved by AT&T. I want to be able to look at the software and get somewhat comfortable with it before I start trying to do anything.
[Captivate General] pietro_spina:
Heimdall will work great on your set up. There is also a linux version of the"super oneclick" tool. It didn't work great for me but there were some awesome step by step instructions in the thread to root via the command line.
[Captivate General] sgosnell:
Awesome instructions that didn't work, huh? ;) I'm comfortable with a Linux command line, so I'll probably go with Heimdall. Some people seem to be having problems with it, but the main reason is probably inexperience with the Linux/OSX command line and with technology in general.

Thanks to all for the pointers. Obviously I wasn't putting exactly the right terms into Google, since I never saw a reference to Heimdall. Once I get a phone, I think I can figure it out as I go. Fedex is slow, as usual. We have a priority package sitting in the office at work that has been waiting on a pickup for over a month. The ground guy comes by almost every day, but he can't pick it up, only the air guy can, and he never shows up. Why, oh why, did we ever leave UPS for Fedex? My second-day delivery is going to take a week or so, but I'll survive somehow. :)

I don't have the space for a VM. My netbook only has 32GB, divided between / and /home, and I don't have a Windows license in any case.

i use nlite to strip down windows xp and run it in a vm in virtual box, i only have a 40gig ssd since my other hard drive crashed but find it to be plenty for applications. i keep media on my network drive. the bigger issue than space is ram. if you dont have 2gigs+ on that thing ten virtual machines will bog you down considerably

i see your point though. i think the reason this forum doesnt have too much as far as instructins for linux is that we have odin and most linux users dont mind having windows for some stuff. im pretty sure that if somebody can write heimdal on there own that it is posible to flash without a special application.

also nearly everything you need to do can be done without a computer if you are starting with 2.1, you can root 2.1 with a file downloaded from this site then once rooted you can flash 2.2 roms that are pre rooted and have cwm built into the kernel. once you have root and busybox, terminal emulator and root explorer can do what ever adb can do. you can even use a bluetooth keyboard and tv out if you hate the touch interface for doing things with the file system.

DOWNLOAD:

http://www.megaupload.com/?d=99DF9YHN

contains framework-res.apk, lge-res.apk, android.policy.jar, services.jar

INSTALL:

to install you just have to use adb to replace your current files with these ones (/system/framework/) then change the permissions to 644 (chmod 644 [location])

id suggest doing them one at a time and rebooting each time. start with lge-res, then services, then the other two. i know it takes longer but at least if something goes wrong youll know what file it is.

most of it is based off of this http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=952432. i changed some images and did a few other things to get it working with 2.2.2. ive tried it with LOL v1.4, lightv2, and nessy#c (it seems to be a little buggy on lightv2)

if you already have a power-menu you dont need to replace android.policy.jar as far as i know.
