I just got my G1 two days ago. It had RC29 on it I followed the step by step instructions to get the modified RC30 on it. Everything went fine, I was able to get root and update to the modded RC30 (I think). Now when I try to go into telnet to verify, I get an error in telnet:
"error while connecting to server: localhost 127.0.0.1:23 - connection refused"
followed by:
"error while receiving from server: null"
My build # now is kila-user 1.0 Tc4-RC30 116143 ota-rel-keys,release-keys
Is anything messed up?
WiFi is turned on.
You shouldn't need wifi at all. Just use Telnet.apk to connect to G1 itself.
The fingerprint of Mod RC30 v1.2 is identical to that of OTA RC30 because the fingerprint is reported to Google servers on update checks. If you want to check whether you have Mod RC30 installed, open Terminal Emulator and type cd /system/modules If it changes the directory you are on Mod RC30 v1.2. If it failed to change directory then you are on OTA RC30.
When I type in "cd /system/modules" in terminal emulator it simply goes to another line. It does not say whether or not it changed the directory. Is that what it's supposed to do?

That means it has changed directory (and thus you are on Mod RC30 1.2). You can confirm by typing pwd.
cool, thanks! I guess I did it correctly.
... so what then? i've got the same problem with telnet. i apparently have root, however, telnet does not work after reset.

I did not mean for the original title to be dirogitory i simply ment to make it as clear as posible it fixes many problems that we have had in that rom i dont want somone applying it to another 2.1 rom that it doesnt work for and coming back and saying ruler why wernt you more clear...
this was all posted (in one post) by rank78 i reposted so i could make a wiki page out of it (the fix finds were descovered by multilple people if you want your name up here pm me and il put it up)
these problems are more-so in all 2.X roms, the way your title is is like your bashing, but thanks anyway

x2 but thanks for the effort.
Great info, but can you edit the title of the post? It seems a bit harsh to flipz. All these guys deserve the utmost respect for doing these ROMs and not asking for much from us.
Just my 2 cents, thanks again.
wow people are sensitive. he's not bashing flipz...
rank78 also posted the links to the files needed for these fixes, i think it would be a good idea to post them on the first post of this topic
Great
Thanks Rolermon,
Quick question, would the MMS fix work for the 2.1 Darchdroid? Also, when you said step 5. update carriers set mmsc='http://mms.sprintpcs.com?X-MDN=YOUR11DIGITNUMBER' where name='Production'; -----------are we to changing the MDN=************ for something on our end, or do we leave it as it is?
Edit---------Another question on the QUICKBOOT FIX - WORKS--------
Where do I find the reboot file that I need to push to /system/bin?

Many thanks, but I was able to push the file to the destination. About the MMS, i did as instructed, still didn't help at all. I am not able to mms pics out either.
I am on Darchdroid V1 2.1
You guys probably know a lot more about this than I do, but shouldn't the MMS link be:
http://mms.sprintpcs.com/servlets/MMS?X-SPRINT-MDN="Your MSID Number" ?
on my hero, i just put in:

and it worked.

There still needs to be appropriate quit and .quit statements added in to get out of sqlite3 and shell.

No, supposedly both work. The MDN version works all the time and the MMS version works some of the time.

Ok but after that statement, what goes after, cuz since we are in the sqlite3 telephony.db, we cant adb reboot from there. What is the command to close/save the statement. I tried .quit, exit, adb reboot and no success.
how do we know that by doing the above statements the change took effect?
1) update carriers set mmsc='http://mms.sprintpcs.com?X-MDN=1+area code + cell #' where name='Production'; *1+area code + cell '*

Hi,
I want to use root access on my android app, but I don't know how to get root access and how to use it. I've searched Internet and found someone said that I should call
Runtime.getRuntime().exec("su");
But when I did that the system asked me to give root access to my app, I choose yes, but app still cannot perform any root operations like listening on TCP port 80
please help me
Thank you in advanced!!
Alex
I'm sure there's some reason why it would fail because it seems too obvious, but my first guess would be to get a shell, su to root, then
chmod u+s whatever.apk
So on my old phone i had a fingerprint lock set. I got my replacement phone back to today and restored it.
After I restored the new phone phone it asks for a pin number. I unlock with the pin from the old phone but when I go to re enable the fingerprint it flashing the fingerprint/pin screen then returns to settings.
Anyone else have this happen?

Try wiping all prints then redoing it.
Has anyone found a solution to this problem?
This is something I have just ran into after swapping what I think was a bit of a lemon Atrix for a new one; I did a quick Titanium Backup prior to the swap, went about restoring everything, and now I cannot enter the "Change Screen Lock" section of Settings, nor can I "Clear stored fingerprints" as that option isn't allowed.
My thanks for any advice or help that anyone can offer. I'd prefer not to resort to a Factory Reset; after all, I just got things up and running again, and I have no idea if that would even help anything.
Thank you,

You probably will have to and then not restore your settings. For future before you swap out your device due to a glitch remove the security. Also I would recommend submitting a bug report to the developer.
I also have the exact same problem. Has anyone found a solution to this issue?
I had this same problem. To fix I had to flash SBF. Don't think there is a way to fix it once you've restored it. Make sure when you make a new back-up before you flash that you remove security or not back it up. In this instance, since you can't disable it, you'll have to remove it from back-up.
Yeah I had the same issue. when TiBu backed up my stuff it backed up even sys files and settings messing a lot of things up, forcing me to flash 4.1.26 and start over. So what I had to do is manually pick what TiBu backs up and leave sys settings and files out.

wish i would've had this a couple days ago. Had to sbf flash back to get mine working again. I will say, if you have to use TiBu, setup your security first, then restore. Worked for me the last time this happened.

Great solution! Others have been going back to SBF and rebuilding!
I'm posting this elsewhere because this problem can impact anyone with fingerprint security doing customization and restoring settings.

I was just about to flash my phone when I came across this.
UPDATE FOR THE FIX using only the handset
1. Get the program SQlite editor on your atrix
2. Root Explorer to directory /data/data/com.motorola.android.providers.settings/databases/settings.db
3. select settings
4. scroll down to lock_type lock_fingerprint lock_timer
5. Long press on each and delete.(confirm delete on each)
then you dun
reboot and your back in bidness
hope this helped somebody....
