(Q) How to root with a mac - T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II

Does Anybody have an idea of how to root with a mac?
My parallels trial period expired
VMware is too complicated and confusing..

ODIN is Windows only
The short answer is no
Also VMWare isn't confusing at all. Less confusing than using ODIN anyway. Just go use your PC at work or use a friend's PC. You should have a VM of Windows on hand anyway. VirtualBox works well too, and you can get Windows Server for free if you are a student and install the desktop experience package and it's the same as Windows 7 basically. If you're not a student, get the 180 day Windows Server trial and keep resetting it.

Connecting TP2 to computer

What software do I use to connect the TP2 to the comp? I'm looking to back up my phone on the comp as well as transfer some CAB files to it that are too big to email.
I installed both the cd's that came with the phone. One installed some odd Verizon bundle and the other just gives me this worthless screen about the online manual and whatnot.
Thanks!
If you're using Windows Vista, then you need Windows Mobile Device Center.
If you're using Windows XP, then you need Activesync.
You can get them here.
Please read your device's manual for more information.

Um...You could use logmein to remote into your computer but then you're not really accessing network shares in the way that you initially described. When you use a remote tool like Logmein to transfer files you're using FTP or SFTP rather than just a network transfer from one device to the next.
What you initially described would be a Windows service that is not integrated into the WinMo OS's.
I have used a program on an HTC Universal a looooong time ago that allowed access to network shares. I have no idea where it came from or where to get it now, though...
It was a pretty simple interface. Maybe that was just the difference between WinMo 6 Pro and Standard?
If you have an OS running IIS you can use the directory access functionality. I have used Windows 2000 Server and my T-mobile Dash this way and it worked good. IIS is free on the Server versions of the OS and I believe it is available to install on XP and later desktop OS. If you like Linux you could use the free open source Apache Server too.
Free app to access PC
Check out Orb software. You have to leave your PC running and net connected, but if you have internet access on your Dash, you can access files on your PC through Orb's website.

windows 7 basic remote desktop help

i can seem to get it to work on my touch pro 2 i tried everything well almost anyway

Can you remote access to your PC from a regular computer? (Outside home of course).
You will need Windows 7 Professional to do this.

Figuring out debugging on a Kaiser on Win 7 (32 AND 64 bit)

Hi all!
I need your help to get this thing working, without necessarily
1: Install Ubuntu on one of my boxes
2: Debug through VirtualBox
I have been mucking about with getting ADB to recognise my Kaiser but it's been a long run uphill without any results. I'd like to ask you guys/gals if you have a fully working adb debugging environment with your Kaiser in Windows 7, 32 bit AND 64 bit. I'd like to know for three reasons
1: I have two boxes with either version of Windows 7
2: I have a Kaiser I'd like to be able to debug so I can help out as best I can
3: It would be a great addition to the wiki I'm authoring
So, if you have and/or know a debugging environment set up, please provide details on what to get, where to get it and how to install it.
I have been searching this forum up and down and used Google but this is seriously kicking my butt right now . Thank you all in advance!
Another option would be to make a dual-boot machine, although i'm not certain how this would work with Win7, only done it on XP, however I'm sure it's relatively simple.
In fact if it wasn't for the fact that I need my desktop as a file and print server it'd be dual-boot already.
I'm resurrecting an older laptop at the moment purely as a linux box to use as a dev environment, which is fun as anyone who has an acx100 wifi chipset will tell you (having to go back to Ubuntu 6.10, which is the last fully acx100 aware version I can find).
Dual booting involves either, repartitioning your hard drive, or installing another drive for Linux, I find having about 10GB is enough with maybe 1GB or so for swap, this is usually plenty for a decent dev environment with a lightweight GUI like Xfce or even Enlightenment, if you want bells and whistles, (Gnome or KDE), maybe as high as 20GB.
Some feedback
I've been trying to do this on two Windows boxes for a couple of hours and I have to say, it's pretty amazing that I can't seem to get this working in any other way that either installing Ubuntu or Windows XP.
I've been trying the drivers that came with the Android 2.x SDK because these should be working. Is there anything preventing these drivers from working on our Kaisers and should I in that case get other ones (please provide a link)?
I'll try using a Live CD of Ubuntu and boot up my 64-bit box and see if I can get that to behave. Will report back as soon as its done.
It may be something weird, because I connected my kais130 to my old armada 500 laptop yesterday, which is running an old 6.10 version of Ubuntu, and it connected in USB with not a care in the world, powered down, swapped drives to my XP drive, and rebooted, it too detected the kais, yet on my 1.6Ghz dual core netbook, not a flicker, even running the latest 9.10 ubunto on live cd, not a thing.
I'm starting to wonder if sometimes the lack of connectivity is down to hardware on the PC side?
My old laptop however hates even ubuntu 6.10, so I may have to go to another lighter distro, probably slackware based, in order to get decent speed without the damn memory hog of a gui ( gnome or kde ) and the ability to compile my acx100 module without all the ubuntu hand-holding sudo stuff getting in the way.
I just finished a guide on the wiki I'm authoring to get debugging up and running on Ubuntu 9.(Karmic Koala) and it worked on two of the machines I got around here. One of those machines is the one with 64-bit Windows 7 which I couldn't get to work before.
I threw in a Live CD of Karmic Koala and made a couple of changes to the udev rules and it worked from the first get-go. Same with the other computer, which is a laptop which just so happens had Ubuntu installed in it already. I followed the guide I wrote and it worked without a hitch.
My limited knowledge about drivers and hardware leads me to think there's something going on with either the driver having a problem realising there is an Android based device connected to it, or it is something else entirely.
I wish I had a it more knowledge about these things, if nothing else to be able to get some kind of log/dump/debugging info out of Windows that I could share with the rest of the people around here, which might make us nail down the culprit and get rid of these problems for good. Or until the next version of Windows gets released.
Anyways, it is now up and running on my Ubuntu-laptop, so now I can at least get some more info about what's going on in Android when it locks up, freezes or just FC's.
Ditch VirtualBox. USB support on it is pretty crappy.
I build all of my roms on Ubuntu sitting on VMware Player. Very seamless experience.

VNC for Android

not sure if anyone needs this, but i sure use it everyday for work.
so here's the link in case you need it
http://code.google.com/p/android-vnc-viewer/
it's compatible with UltraVNC (http://www.uvnc.com/download/), it sure beats Windows Remote Desktop (Therminal Services) and it's more secure too
Apple Mac OS X 10.4 and newer already comes build in with the VNC server.
N1ce will try this out later
Nice!!! VNC finally on Android... I was using RemoteDesktop before this... It's ok... but VNC is VNC!!!
Hi,
I'm having a bit of trouble getting Android VNC working on my I9000. I'm using Ubuntu 10.04 and I can connect to it fine. When I try to control the desktop from my phone I can see the response on my pc screen but not on my phone. Does anyone know why this is?
Thanks
Maybe Galaxy S does not have that much processing power? :S
Not sure...
i doubt that as i have no problem.
check your internet connection.
if you are running torrents, turn it off
My internet connection is fine, I'm not having any problems connecting to websites on either my computer or phone. I'm not running any torrents either....
I use ultraVNC with MRSCplugin encryption on my desktop pcs, does anyone know if there is a client that can handle this as I don't think this one does?
AFAIK i don't think the current releases supports encryption yet
I use TightVNC on Vista; and this app works amazingly awesome!.
I get a few laughs now and then scaring people controlling pc remotely.. LOL
really works like a charm, use this as remote for my pc when watching movies in bed lol also secretly installed on my little brothers pc and he is running scared xD
Anyone figured out the easiest way to double click without it coming out as a right click?
I usually use the WYSE software for this, seemed to work much better when I was on a Milestone.
Remember , Zodttd is working on VNC for android!
I tried VNC but LogMeIn is A LOT better.
I use RealVNC on the PC Win7 and "Remote VNC Ad" on my Samsung Galaxy S i9000

I am using UltraVNC on all my servers, androidVNC works just fine with it. When on slow connections, I just only pull 8 or 64-colors to lighten it up a bit.

It's a Ubuntu vino server and Nvidia problem. You should disable visual effects (compiz), set it to none and you will have a working VNC server!

why would you want sound to be transferred ?
it's a waste of bandwidth
it's horrible when you are stuck in an area with only EDGE coverage, say you are driving between 2 towns, you get a call
it's an emergency, and you need to pull over to remote into the server to fix whatever it is
