Voodoo Sound Help Needed - T-Mobile LG G2x

Hello all, I am in contact with Supercurio on how to allow for Voodoo sound to be implemented. As of now there isn't enough info for Supercurio to add the required modifications to enable it.
He asked me for three things that are needed for him to study the sound interaction with the system
1. Rooted Phone
2. ADB wireless Widget app
3. Open port for him to connect from his location to my phone
I'm having trouble opening a port to allow him to remotely access my phone through adb wireless.
Is there anyone willing to let him do the same with their phone or can someone help me open a port from my router to allow him to connect.
what you need: TCP public ip:5555 -> phone internal ip:5555 (This is where I'm having trouble)

Google how to open a port on your router, that would be the easiest thing to do

I've tried, that's why I'm reaching out to the XDA community. I can't seem to open any port. Information on how to do so just for a phone is proving more difficult. I'm using Netgear WNDR3700. I've failed about 20 times since yesterday to open a port.

What's he after? If he's trying to figure out what the sound chip is, it would appear to be a Wolfson 8994. He will find out quite a bit more by pulling the kernel source which LG has posted.
He'll also find that the driver setup is really, really weird. The "sound driver", for example, is little more than a shell which allows register access from the NVRM process, which is proprietary.
So if he wants to apply his magic to the sound driver, it's going to be tough. And maybe not possible (not sure how the sound chip handles routing between it and the RIL, for example.)
But I haven't spent a lot of time in this stuff, maybe I have it wrong.

I have my phone set up and sent him a PM to hit me up and gtalk when he's ready.

Okay !
In a few hours then, I finish some debugging first
I'll come back in the thread.

Easy root for Thunderbolt on Windows

Yestarday I wrote a Mac OS X Easy root with a video

I will write one if I get 5 likes on this video by the end of day and as soon as I get at least 5 likes I will start writing it and have it done within a couple hours! I just want to make sure people are really interested in it before I start.

That's kinda wrong.to forcibly ask.for.something to give something that should be free anyway

I agree with you we shouldn't even have to root the phone in the first place that's why I did this stuff.
I also agree with you. I didn't realize I seem like I was asking for money. So I took that down.
Enjoy the root.
THANKS!!!

I think I will wait to root until 2.3 comes out. I'd really like to just have vanilla android gingerbread without sense.. then, I will be a happy camper. Is there anyway to debrand the Verizon Logo?

BackTrack 5 on Mesmerize

(This is a re-post from Android Hacking and General section; I developed this on a Mesmerize so I can promise it will work just fine on 2.1 and 2.2.1 stock kernels)
Requires a rooted device!
BackTrack 5 installation guides are making their way around this forum. I've tried to synthesize it all, but I've also added my own touches to help with usability and features, along with a workaround for the "ioctl LOOP_SET_FD failed" error message some people have been getting.
In theory this build is nearly universal, so if you have an Android device it should work. I've put it all in one zip file that you can download directly from my website, no hassles or wait timers.
If you are interested have a look, feel free to re-post. Credit goes to the BackTrack team and xda member anantshri (he's got skills, give him props guys), who built the base image file.

BackTrack is an operating system based on Ubuntu Linux that is used for security testing (aka hacking) and digital forensics. I'm a master's degree student in computer security, so I love this OS... it can do awesome things. Turn on your Wi-Fi and you can do advanced network scans and tests right from your phone, no laptop required. For me this is hella-useful.
But besides just being an OS for hacking ****, it's also fully Ubuntu-based, so you can run it like a desktop, including running Firefox and other Linux applications.

I doubt this is possible to do via a phone, but can you crack wifi networks using this?
Wait, so let me get this straight.... this is an ubuntu based os that will run on the mesmerize???
If so, HOW? Dual boot? Or complete rom replacement?

Assuming the Wi-Fi chipset supports it (and it probably does) then yes, you could, but it will take a lot longer than, say, if you had a laptop, since Wi-Fi cracking always involves cryptographic computations.

It still runs pretty nicely, especially considering you are running it on a phone And for what it's worth, having to use VNC as the GUI is often a plus; it's nice to be able to switch back and forth quickly.

Just like an app. Specifically it uses the concept of a "chroot" to run it from inside of Android's Linux kernel. You can even switch back and forth between the two instantly.

Correct, under normal circumstances. I'm going to cover my ass here and remind you that you'll be running this stuff as root, so if you start deleting files willy nilly you can still blow away your Android system requiring a re-flashing.
But as long as you aren't an idiot you'll be just fine, lol.

Cheesecake not working on SCV6 + questions about Auto cheesecake I am making

Well it seems cheesecake is not working on scv6. Even on the production server, it fails every time to check updates!!! any ideas?
More importantly I am creating an auto cheesecake app, but I need some help. I have phydo's original source and that is what I have been building off of. His app just starts an event, or what ever you want to call it that is built in to the phone (the cloud switcher thing that pops up. My question is what does that even change. it does not seem to change the same xml that is used for the manual method, but to automate things I really need to figure out what that does so I can do it myself.
Thanks,

I have mine all scripted... I will PM you what I have, then maybe we can come up with something more user friendly.... My script just replaces the XML with a new file with the next server in line to check, then runs the update check from the command line on the phone. not pretty, but it works in both cron and with tasker.
I would not write an app or apk for this, it could all be 100% behind the scenes to the user, and maybe an app that could change the frequency and/or turn the cron on or off.... just some thoughts, we can throw some more ideas around here too.

I thought about just doing a script but I went with an apk for a few reasons. first, many users here might have trouble figuring out how to use that right, and we want as many people as possible. I am also trying to get better with java, so this was a good simple starter project that is still useful to people.
I will try to include a way to set it to check at certain times.
I think we should set up a schedule as for who will check at what time so that we don't miss things. Maybe I should create an open google calendar and everyone can add the time they want to check to better our odds of getting an update. let me know what you all think
I mentioned in another thread, but this thread seems appropriate....
I haven't had any luck with any of the cheesecake servers for a couple weeks now--since the weekend of the searet ics leak. Before that I would get various servers all the time and plenty of "your device is up to date" messages.
I try several times a day at various times ( ~4am, ~11am, ~4pm PST ) and haven't gotten a server once since that weekend.
I've been wondering if Moto has changed something on their end...its quite an easy thing to change DNS entries ans/or server hostnames and/or IP addresses and/or usernames...
So I've been wondering...
Where does cheesecake get its servername info? How does it resolve the servernames? What user is it using?
FWIW, I'm on lithium v1.2 (and have been since back in April).

[ROM] WebOS - Untethered [Download]

Hey guys,
got a brand-spanking-new N7 for Christmas and saw on a news site about a WebOS port.
Now, I'm not sure if any of you have seen the Nook Color forums but I'm gonna tell you, they hacked a 2010 $250 e-reader to run every version of Android and Ubuntu. I'm a tinkering kind of guy and decided to give this ago.
So pretty much I took instructions from here:
http://www.webos-ports.org/wiki/Nexus_7_Build_Setup
And installed to the device here:
http://www.webos-ports.org/wiki/Testing_Nexus_7
It is moderate-hard difficulty, especially for people who have never tinkered with this kind of stuff before. There's only so much I can do for you guys, but I have simplified the install process quite a bit.
I DO reccomend building it yourself if you can, because it provides a learning experience plus you can get the build fresh out of the oven.
Note: This is work in progress, some stuff may not work, alpha, blah blah most of you have heard it.
Without further ado, I present to you:
WebOS Installation Guide - Nexus 7 Edition​
Windows:
1. Download Windows.zip
2. Extract all to one directory, make sure Nexus is plugged in & ADB on
3. Run "Boot.exe"
4. Wait.
Linux version to come; Mac i'm not so sure about.
Credits: ALL credits go to WebOS-ports for making this port in the first place. I just made it easier for the common user to test this thing out. You can thank me if you like but please remember to do so to WebOS-ports as well.
Notes:
-This is an alpha build, according to the dev. It's nothing you could use everyday as an OS but this stuff is fun to play with
-I nor WebOS-ports take responsibility for your device in anyway! I don't care if your cat dies because it ate your N7 running WebOS, or you caused WWIII, or whatever. Please take caution.
Looks interesting and I am the tinkering kind of guy myself. Down to check it out. Oh, and I always wanted to say it.....FIRST!
Wouldn't you be second cuz he was the first guy to post something

For me it's stuck at "booting downloaded image".
I started compiling this last night at about 11:00. Its 1:00 pm now. This morning when I went to bed the terminal said 'preparing run queue' and had for about two hours. This morning when I woke up terminal reads 'Currently 1 running tasks (1801 of 4600): 0: webkit-webos-1.3-0.54-r10 do_compile (pid 9944). Been this way for a long time now. When i scroll up the terminal window I see some warnings. Repeated several times is QA Issue: package qt4-webos contains bad RPATH and repeated several times before that is QA Issue: No GNU_HASH in the elf binary: Am I on the right track or is something screwed up? I'm using an older PC running Ubuntu 12.04 with core 2 duo and only 4 GB of ram so I figured it would take a while. When I started the build I also got a message in the terminal saying this build has never reportedly been done on my machines configuration and to let them know if it works. Something along those lines.

I use airdroid for fast copying off my phone or to my phone when I don't want to plug in. It's also great for sending long text messages as you can message right from any browser. Setup port forwarding and you can check your messages, phone log, etc if you leave your phone at home and you're out. You can download apk's that are installed on your phone, manage your music, photos, everything very easily.
I've been using the app lately. I think you might not even need to use port forwarding if you go through the airdroid website, but that means that you'd need the unique password displayed on the screen to log in.
It also allows you to scan a qr code to authenticate which wouldn't work for remote logins, but still handy.

If you pick up the v2 beta you can login from another network. It also has tracking and camera functions. Android Police has a story on it.
It is quite useful actually... Its not as fast as a USB but hey, if you don't want to spend the time taking our the USB and plugging it in, its extremely useful. I use it quite a lot

Could be. Depends on how strong of a wifi signal you have, if it's an N router, if you're plugged into a USB 1 or 2 port, and how saturated your USB controller is with other things.
In theory, wifi n is faster than usb 2, but in real life it's not normally, but depends on the things I said above.
This app is great. Also, I find it being faster than USB and less troublesome.
I transferred a about 3GB without getting desperate. So, yeah, that's fast.
