Hello,
Can someone whom is on a default, unmodified htc brand 2.2 kernel please post, link or email to me /proc/config.gz?
Thanks.
The file doesn't exist.
Sure it does. What does the OP need it for? Its the same as the defconfig in the source code.
Most likely for the PSGroove port. Already working for Desire!

Here ya go. My current config is not default, but this is identical to stock.
Thanks all! And to answer your question(s), I'm doing a learning exercise trying to trace back TVOut functionality to specific drivers in the kernel. Its a huge shot in the dark, but its a useful task to learn a bit about android, packages, activities, etc. etc. etc.
Good luck. It also depends on framework

So far I ripped out the TVOut stuff from services.jar and got it into the CM6.0.2 services.jar, copied libTVout.so into the the right place, and got the TVOut.apk over, and... it boots! but nothing else. logcat shows an error when I plug in the cable as unrecognized headphones.
Lots to be done to diagnose from here. That was the easiest / longshot solution.

PM incoming.
The binaries listed in the thread title (and others, iwmulticall for example) all work on my Viewsonic G-tab.. How much different is the Xoom so that the same binaries will also work? Thats rhetorical, as I'm going to try to get all of my favorite utilities on this tablet (xoom) regardless.. iwconfig can be a big help in diagnosing problems with wifi, and most certainly boostiing performance while the device is asleep (iwconfig <adapter name> power off).
Its quite strange that there is no CWM for this.. as the Viewsonic Gtab has a recovery that mounts the internal sdcard as /sdcard/ (to my dismay).
I had hoped to find things like a multi-core enabled tar/bzip binary included with honeycomb.. haha.. I'm serious.. That said, how do we go about creating such binaries? I don't think its just as simple as compiling an arm linux binary, copying to device, and setting perms... I've tried this with aria2c.. heh.. Think we'll see any multithreaded binaries anytime soon?
At least all of the partitions are ext4 - with the exception of pds.. whatever the hell that is.
I'm not sure if this is the correct section to post this in.. so feel free to move if necessary..
Wait until we get SD card enabled

Ok.. so you're saying they will give us microsd cards loaded up with multithreaded command line binaries? thats awesome. Thanks.

wow, and you're asking for help? Chill out! I've been working on something like this, I had a Gtab too. IMO it would be easier once we get the SD cards working. However if I find anything I'll post it, but no need for that attitude.
Do you think you can find a copy of swype that would work for the Xoom? That's this tab is missing.. I've trieda few different things to get it on here and working but it always complains about screen resolution and I've found that SlideIT is NOT a decent replacement...
If it matters I have swype 2.6blah on my samsung mesmerize but had nowhere near the res of the Xoom.. I've seen a thread on swype on there gtab.... But I didn't try it since someone reported editing their build.prop caused segfaulting instead of booting and that want something I wanted to have happen unless I havea full day to devote to it..
Any help would be amazing!

What did I say? I still have my Gtab.. What about getting the sdcard working will making things easier? I don't understand what you're talking about, but it could be that ferocious attitude of mine getting in the way of things..
ok. so.. iwmulticall (aka iwconfig, iwpriv, iwlist, iwspy, and iwgetid) work.. busybox kinda works.. find is kinda messed up, as is ls. md5sum works.. tar works.. lsmod works.. and so on..
just mounted the xoom (@/) using sshfs on my linux comp.. works perfectly.. so both sftp-server and dropbear work..
1.16.2 did not seem to work.. but 1.16.1 works. I'll post..
unzip this to the directory that the adb binary resides in..

why don't you just contact koush? he stated on his website that he won't provide CWM publically until moto/google provide sdcard support.
he did say he already has it running on his own device but doesn't want to risk a 800 dollar investment for any of us until sd card support comes through.
The sdcard hardware is in there, correct? This won't be a send-out update like the 4G modem... Can you guys use nvflash on this thing? I forgot to try to put the device into apx mode. I assume its the same procedure... power + vol up + vol down.
To port over the iPhone emoji? its getting a little lame not to have a universal emoji.. but surely if Handcent can do it the system should be able to..
Found THIS
Download, unzip, replace /system/fonts file of same name, reboot. It only covers about 70ish% of emoji. Better than 0%.
Nandroid Backup before flashing... you've been warned.
So it zips it into correct spot or do I have to by hand?

Ok, hate to be an idiot here, but I was taught the only dumb question is one un-asked.. Astro will not move the files or replace.. seems maybe the system is using the font? If I can do this in recovery then I am unsure of how.. little help on the moving of said file and replacing?
Sorry man.. maybe I am missing something?

This. You must be rooted to have superuser permissions (access to write to the /system partition).
Use Root Explorer like roxxors said, give it SU permissions, navigate to your system/app folder, mount R/W at the top right (read/write) and then you can long press on items to delete or modify the apps and permissions.
Remember you have to mount R/W before you can edit, paste, move things into, or otherwise modify what's in /system
Its ok as long as you get it figured out.

Dude, that sucks man. I saw your post about it earlier and how someone said "Did you have a phone locator app?"
I've used locating apps in the past, but being a performance freak I try to keep my phone pretty barebones. Hearing your tale of sadness makes me wonder about reinstalling it.
Wouldn't do much use if the person who took it knows the first thing about Android. Not that I ever would but if I stole an EVO first thing I would do is turn of GPS and do Airplane Mode and either uninstall locating apps or do a factory reset.
But maybe someone found it on accident and it will be at the lost and found tomorrow?
Or maybe this is God's way of telling you to switch to the EVO 3D when it comes out!

Well me being the mini guru I am, keep my gps off when not in use, and had no locator apps, and called my mom to call sprint and deactivate it and but a bad esn on it [which they did]. Its rooted, with all the bells and whistles, so I don't expect to get it back, and like I said, its been deactivated...and have to use a "shudders" blackberry for like 10 days, til i get the replacement. And it may be...

Glad that you got it working man.
I came across a Lookout Carrier IQ Detector which I ran on a few custom ROMS that have had the CIQ removed but the utility claims I have it even after running the CIQ removal zip via Clockwork mod. How is this possible and how can we truly verify that CIQ is removed from our roms/devices?
Thanks in advance

just wait for soviet nyan cat. he'll get it closed. It will report the bits of the shell that k0nane had to leave for your system to work. they are empty directories though. It's seeing their existence.
To be a little more helpful.
All custom ROMs have CarrierIQ removed/disabled.
There are however, inert .so (library) files that must be kept in order to have a booting ROM.
These are what CIQ detectors find.

This is just an educated guess. But an .so file is a linked library. So, there are parts of code that link to these files and call functions in them - functions that are normally part of the CIQ logging. Some function has to be there to be called, or else the calling code would likely fail. When MikeEx says there are "inert" so files in place of the normal files, that probably means a dev has stripped out the CIQ code in those function calls and left them there doing nothing, instead of recording data for CIQ. But there still needs to be an empty function there to call or other code in the OS that calls these functions would break.

Thank you for the informative replies. Makes sense that directories left behind would be needed and be detected as CIQ. Thanks again and my apologies for posting in the wrong section. It's rare for me to post unless I deem the subject critical in this case it was to me. Merry Christmas and Happy Holidays
Voodoo Carrier IQ detect seems to be the most thorough app out there. Dont trust sprint or anyone for that matter. It costs nothing but a little time for some knowing or Peace of mind like Marcusants post it will be there all the time.
Most EI22 roms, including my own, have built around K0nane's ciq removal process. As mentioned, several files must remain with remnants that the detector may find. What you may not quite understand, is that the potentially malicious CIQ is much more integrated the already-Samsung-modified Android system.
In short, full removal of dead (trust me, it's dead) remains from the entirety of the system is much more involved than you may think and more likely to cause problems than to give you peace of mind.
And again, Q&A section please.

You have to explain why if you're going to post it!
The thing that messes up the score on the Voodoo detector is calls to Sprintandroidextensions.apk. If you remove or freeze that file you can get consistent scores of 70 but you will not be able to update PRL or profile and it will cause some problems with Visual Voicemail initializing. If K0nane says it's gone, then it's gone. The detector doesn't know how to look for apps actually sending information which they no longer do.

If you read through what it says about packages, drivers, Kernel, etc.. you can see with most of the ROMS that there is nothing in the critical areas and nothing active and the Carrier IQ removal tool posted does neuter this thing by slicing off the balls but it still leaves the penis. Goodby IQ have fun in court.
very annoying, thanks alot.
Well as the title say I need some testers. I'm developing an app which one for now works with, Galaxy Nexus Maguro, but I need some Toro and Toroplus testers. (Since my nexus is maguro and I can't try it) also if any of you have a SGS3 I will appreciate if you test it as well since it suppose to work with the SGS3.
What you need
Samsung Galaxy Nexus rooted and/or Samsung Galaxy S3 rooted.
What you need to do
Simple, just start the app (App Test) you will see a text that says: ----Notifications---- and under that text other text that says TEST Notification.
1. You need to see a toggle button at the right of the second text.
2. When you turn on the toggle you have to see a notification that says: Notification ONLINE
3. When you turn off the toggle the notification should be clear.
What if I don't see something about the 3 points above?
Post what you see, and tell me what the Toast message says. I will see and try to fix it.
PLEASE POST IF IT WORKS AND IF IT DOESN'T
App is attached.
Thanks

As a developer you should already know that giving root access to an app, of which its purposes are unknown, can be dangerous. The paranoia normal users (like me) have is not unfounded. That being said, I'm not trying to accuse you of anything at all. It's just that slightly more clarification would be appreciated before you ask for someone to install apps that request for root rights.
// edit: Oh, and I'll be available if you need more maguro devices for testing.
OP you do realize that you've posted this in the wrong section.. do you?
