[Q] wifi on froyo anroid

hi.
mi phone hd2 anroid have problem with connecting to my home wifi.
it find my wifi comming ut secured with wpa/wpa2 but cannot connect.
i used many anroid roms like evo 4g 1.6 froyostone 3.3 /3.1.changed rom on wm.
my wm can connect to wifi without problem but when i boot to anroid it cant connect.

Did you pushed the modules to /system/lib/modules? Do it with root explorer.
The WiFi module is named bcm4329. You should get it with every single kernel you download.
If yes, try to update the firmware of your WiFi module.

Read this

hehe i just ran the hspl3 and radio and put the anroid map into sd an ran.
it was easy but I do not understand the rest.

If you would read what I posted you would know what your problem is.

Make sure you disable wifi in WinMo before booting Android - did the trick for me when Wifi suddenly stopped working...

I have installed boot explorer and press / system / lib / modules.
installed bcm4329.ko firmwar fw_bcm4329_apsta.
turned off wifi on wm.
but i have same problem wifi can not connect
anyone have ideas what to do?
why I could connect wifi before and not now anymore? : S

Please read the link posted. That's it. That thread says it all. We can't do more than that. I could of course take a plane and come over to your house.
Hmmmm, sounds interesting enough.
Please buy me a ticket and I'll ge to you as soon as I can!

[Q] Looking for help from other Focus unbranders w/ NoDo

I've already tried posting this in the official thread in the WP7 General board but I'm certain it's already been lost in the commotion. So here's the deal:
1) I initially downloaded the PBK file and couldn't run it due to having Adobe Software installed.
2) I managed to discover that rasphone.exe is the program that's supposed to run PBK files and made it the default program for it.
3) When I run the PBK file it tells me the "phonebook is empty."
This means I can't just go in and select the hungarian VPN and go. Would someone be so kind as to go into the properties for the network, and copy down all settings? I would truly appreciate it. Thanks in advance.

I'm in the same situation...

try right clicking the file and use open remote access or whatever the name is...that fixed it for me

Ahaha, you can manually set up a new vpn using ttu.2.usaip.eu as the server, and the update seems to be working

i would not doubt it
i dont know the change log
but i have seen two users report the 13.2.2.2 update
it could not be anything more than to mess up the work around that people have been getting away with by updating the build.prop
because when i try to change the build.prop to 14.3.2.2_user_322095220 in all the right places and try to save it the way i did before using root explorer it saves as 0 kb and is blank when i look at it.so i delete it and change the build.prop.bak file that is created when changing the build.prop back to build.prop because i am afraid to reboot with the blank one in fear of a brick

Google "hdx 8.9 download"
Find the Amazon page that lets you manually download the updates
The download link points to 14.3.2.1..
Copy that link into a new browser window and edit it in two places
this is for 8.9 obviously

What Changed?
Wonder what changed... the recovery, kernel(s) and system apps all appear to be the same. There must be some critical bugs that had to be urgently patched with this latest update coming so quick on the tail of the 13.3.2.1 update.
[Edit]Upon closer inspection, looks like there are some noticeable changes in the following apps:
WhisperlinkSdk.apk
WhisperplayActivityView.apk
WhisperplayCDSSettings.apk
WhisperplayCore.apk
WhisperplayQCSource.apk
com.amazon.communication.apk
com.amazon.tcomm.apk

I've updated 13.3.2.2, somehow opened when the machine is updated immediately so!!

I wonder if it would be possible to insert the SU binaries in this new update and then manually install it without breaking the signature

I just did a manual "Check Update" on my HDX 7 and it said no new updates, but only has 13.3.2.1.
I did sniff the traffic from the Kindle during this check and found that it contacted "softwareupdates.amazon.com" - which I now blocked in my router for what its worth.
Captured packets attached just in case they're useful.

Well crap. Blocking the server as above on my home LAN did stop the update from ever happening but I forgot to turn WiFi off at School and what do you know, 13.2.2 snuck right on in in a matter of minutes

Couple questions...
1. Once I stay out of the Stock rom it shouldn't update. Am I right on that?
2. If I have a rom slot with Fire OS loaded to it and in use. Can I turn on wifi and it not update?
3. I have the AOSP rom in as lot. Can I turn on wifi in this without fear of update?

install safestrap on both stock and rom slot one
so it will not be able to fully update it will bootloop back to safestrap according to GSLEON3

Update the hosts file on the kindle to point to localhost(127.0.0.1) or something. That might, or might not offer some help on WiFi you don't control. You'll need to still have root to do this of course.

[Q] Searching for login details to motoactv.com for motoactv

Hello, I just bought a new motoactv.. But I now see, that because of the fact they shut down Motoact, I cant create an ID. and therefor I cant use the watch as it is. I could root it, but I dont think it will give me the functionality (advanced interval for running) as it can now.
so..is there anyone who can give me their login as they dont use Motoactv.com anymore?
Would be highly appreciated!!

Just register new account from your watch.

Yeah, but since the pc doesnt recougnise the watch as a USB storage device, and WIFI cant be installed, I never get to create an account. I now have the account details of the person where I bought it from, but I suppose I can as well throw it away, Motorola doesnt give support either.

Stop adbd shell in your watch.
Easiest way - via MotoACTV Root Tool from http://www.cleardroidroms.com/motoactv.php

Again. Disable adbd - then you will be able to connect Motoactv as a USB storage.

Looks like a custom firmware.
Go to Settings -> General -> Motoactv status -> Software version.
Post it here.

This is initial release or first maintenance version. A really old software.
Update your Motoactv to latest and root only after that.
Keep in mind that versions for 8Gb and 16Gb are different. Choose firmware only for your device.
OR
Install Motorola Device Manager from here https://motorola-global-portal.custhelp.com/app/answers/detail/a_id/88481
Plug in your Motoactv.
MDM has to check it and upgrade to latest (but I have no idea, will it be correct as I have never seen such old firmware like yours)
'Advanced functionality' won't be enabled with root.
Interval training can be enabled/planned via Motoactv portal.
So, upgrade your watch, add new wifi from settings -> wireless, then register new account, go to http://motoactv.com
Voila.

I already rooted it I think.
Problem is, when I run motorola device manager, it only says, no updates and at device it says "N/a"? So no clue how to get the latest software on it.

Uninstall Motorola Device Manager.
Install this version - https://drive.google.com/file/d/0B9ZhejL5ANmGQjdreG5jR3YybTg/edit
2.4.5 definitely had correct drivers.
Check that battery on your watch is fully charged.
MDM has to detect your Motoactv correctly, search for software and upgrade it,
If it won't - look here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1534073
3) Fastboot:
- Operating System: Windows/Linux/Mac
- Instructions (Windows): Unpack the zip, run flash-all.bat (if it fails, run as administrator)
- Instructions (Linux/Mac): Unpack the zip, run flash-all.sh (it should already have proper permissions)

Links are in the first post.

at the end, I got it working. Even wifi, although that was on ly a few times, since then I cant login anymore. I am about to sell the watch, as its realy bad in GPS for running (as it was bought as running watch), so I will just sell it as smart watch. But then I do need some apps installed on it. But when you install one app, its full, now trying to get it to install on the SD memory, but again.. not so easy!

Download location .

Hi @ all ,
I ask the question becasue unable to find the answer ..
i just need to change the download location of my browser (chrome or adblock) to external sd card .
But cannot find any information about this .
Can someone help me ???
if no usual option existing , my phone is rooted .
Thanks a lot .

I don't think you really can.
Even if you are using the same browser as on your PC, on a phone you have limited functionality.
However, you can manually move the downloaded files on your SD card (it sounds stupid, but I can't actually think of anything else).

Thanks for taking the time to answer . The issue is that the file i'm downloading are too big for my internal SD . that why i need to have them downloaded directly to my ext sd.
I can't believe there is no way to do this...but thanks for the effort !

If possible for you to download Samsung Internet it's easy!
Start internet>settings>advanced> and save content to sd card ... or use the usb-c to usb adapter that came with the phone and use external HDD.
Seems not possible in chrome now.

maybe a stupid question, but why dont you install any kind of download manager from the play store? This way, every time you download something you get asked where you want to save the file. And this would work in any browser

And I have yet another stupid question. Why don't you download that file from your PC and then copy it on your SD card, which you can later insert it in your phone. Or use G drive (or Dropbox) app to download it and access it on your phone.

Or you use a browser with an integrated download manager like dolphin. I think opera is also asking where to save downloaded files.

Because i m using 4 g networks to download , and i have no pc with me when i m on journey ( i use 4 g network when i am in big cities to download huge files when i got good networks , usually virtual machine for my work , then i use them at home on my pc to work, so i do the exact inverted process cause of poor adsl connection compare to 4G).
Bu tthanks to all got now lots of solutions :
Use opera mini
Use samsung internet
Use a download manager.
Thanks XDA !

It's not possible to control the download location of chrome on android as far as I know, but you could try using an app like Advanced Download Manager. It has it's own browser that allows full control over downloads and uses the SD card as the default download location.
