Hello all!!
I would be very gratefully if you could help me, because I don't know what more to do...
Now, I have access to the root of my HTC Hero, and I have the emulator working well, but what I wanted to do was searching for a text in all the files, so I thought to use the find command:
find . -type f | xargs grep “cadena a buscar"
but when I tried the command I have obtained the result:
find command not found, and it's true, because in the /system/bin directory, so, now, I don't know what to do in order to find a text in all files....
Thanks a lot if you can give me some help!!
THANKS,
Maria
Hey community, I have just picked up one of these tablets in the hopes that I can use it for some slick new ways of remote desktop and various other work/play related functions.
I've been reading the forums here for the G the past two straight days. I tried flashing my system to TnT 2.0 found on the forums by the one and only Roebeet, Alternate GTab Firmware - TnT Lite (stock based, adds the Marketplace), but I am having issues.
First off I'm wondering if when you say root do you mean inside the /sdcard folder? because that is where Windows 7 is defaulting me to when I mount the drive. This I feel is the cause of all my issues because I thought the update.zip and /recovery were supposed to be on root. Maybe I'm just confused and need some explanation.
If there is a thread I missed that explains all this for a newbie let me know.
Thanks XDA community!

yes the root is what pops up when you mount it to the computer, just copy and paste. root means do not put in another folder just on /sdcard
I'm a newb here, but live in an AIX environment, so I hope to help.
System root is /
The onboard storage (16gb) is mounted as /sdcard
The user micro slot is mounted as /sdcard2 (side note: hoping I can get the vold.fstab to mount sdcard2 under sdcard)
I believe from reading through the TnTLight thread, that you want to put the files under /sdcard, not system root.
Somebody will correct me in short order I am sure.

That's correct. Root is / but you want the upgrade files and folders in the /sdcard directory.
Ok thank you all for tha clarification. I am following the direction correctly then. I have placed the two files into the correct 'root' directory and when I hold down power and volume ^ it does start to run the flash, but then it simply shows me the ! in the triangle and restarts. When I go in to look for the files I put there they aren't there.
Should I try and just use Clockworkmod? Or maybe someone who isn't a programmer has made this work and has some more helpful hints. I am in this communities debt as I really want this to be a cool tool/toy for me but if I can't do what I need to I'll bring it back.

Did you unzip the file you downloaded from the link here? So that you have both an update.zip file and a recovery folder? Sometimes people just rename the downloaded file update.zip and put it on their sdcard, and then get the exclamation point. The download file needs to be extracted first, to give you an update.zip file and a recovery folder, which you then copy to /sdcard (which will look like the root directory when browsing in Windows).
Great question Jacindc, and yes I have extracted the 2 files update.zip and /recovery to the root of my tablet. I am trying to remove and set my G back to some factory base to try this process again. Let me ask you a question in return. Can i use the built in ES file explorer for this process or should I use Astro or does it not matter?
Also what are these files? DiskCacheIndex11214.tmp I have several of them in root and I'm not sure if they are from my mess ups or what.
Ok update, I've found a /mnt dir on the root and inside there are duplicate folders that exist on root such as /sdcard, /sdcard2, /asec, /secure and /usbdisk....I'm confused why there is this duplication. I guess I must confess I attempted to root the G using; http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=843376 but when I tried to then run Titanium backup it would say no root access and I didn't see the superuser app in the drawer like I did on my Moto droid when I rooted that.
Wondering if I should try a complete wipe and type using the vanilla loader found on the forums...another question, does Windows 7 recognize your device as an Nvidia Harmony?
Last edit/update for tonight me thinks...it would seem I've borked it pretty bad because I can't get the thing to copy any files over. It says I have in Windows, so I safely remove hardware, and then unmount and go look in the download dir or the root and nothing...so not sure what I did but lol I got this one I'll return it and get another to try again I guess.
How to install TNT Lite 2.0 or Cyamogen
Hi Everyone,
I just bought an Viewsonic G-Tablet with Android 2.2 and the latest update from the official site. I'm some kind of disappointed with the interface. From what I have read I can install other stuff on it with best and quicker interface.
I'm very familiar with PC & Mac's OS, but with the Android I feel like a dummy.
I would greatly appreciate if:
1-you tell me which one is better?
2-give me cleared & details instructions on how to do it.
Please do me this favor, because I feel like this tablet is a good tools and I wish to keep it.
Thanks in advance!
Most people are first installing CLOCKWORKSMOD RECOVERY and then putting TnT-Lite 2.X.X lately.
Hello, First post and first Android device.
I am in the middle of rooting my xoom and have come to nearly the last step. The file "adb shell chmod 4755 /system/bin/su" returns a " No such file or directory " error. I have gone through the sdk tool folder as well as searched every folder on my C drive, and no such file exists. I have also downloaded the xoomwifiroot zip more than once to make sure the one I had wasnt corrupted. After searching xda forum and the net for several hours I can not find any answers. I have also not only typed it in many times, but have also copy/pasted it from xda as well as other forums.
I would appreciate any help that can fix this so I can enter the last couple lines and finish this.
Thanks

I don't really know how to unlock but here's a quick question, do you use T-Mobile? If you do it's already unlocked

Hello all, thanks for your time.
I have a quick question that I couldn't find an answer to on these forums or anywhere online. The problem I'm having is making a backup of my /efs file. I attempted to post this in the Q&A sticky post but it wouldn't let me, due to not having enough posts. Anyways, on to the question/problem:
I want to backup my /efs file, but I can't seem to find a way. All the apps I have tried don't recognize my device ( Galaxy Note II SGH i317 ) and EFS Pro either finds an error in mismatching md5s or has an error "accessing archives." I should have backed this up before I rooted and flashed CleanROM 5.0, but as they say, hindsight is 20/20. Anyways, my question is how do I manually copy the file? Most posts I have read hint at this being an option, but a noob like me doesn't even know how to get to the file in the directory. Any help would be greatly appreciated, especially a guide through the directory to the file.
Semi-related question: does a CWM recovery file backup the /efs? I've read conflicting information on this. Thanks again!
