Anyone running Ubuntu via VMWare and not able to run the program? I've tried everything and it won't open nor find it when trying to use Terminal; it says:
tar (child): revolutionary-0.3-pre7.tgz: Cannot open: No such file or directory
tar (child): Error is not recoverable: exiting now
tar: Child returned status 2
tar: Error is not recoverable: exiting now

Anyone know what that means? I'm a rookie in Linux but I'm not computer illiterate. I've tried both Windows XP and 7 and I'm also stuck at step 3 where it can't communicate with the device. Someone please have an answer. Thanks.

[GUIDE][JULY/30/2011] S-OFF under Linux/Ubuntu
Yeah. Did that. Didn't work. That's why I'm asking if anyone else has the same issue and has found another work-around.
Having the very same issue. Does anyone have a solution?
same here using Ubuntu 12.04 to root and s-off a stock 2.2.2 HTC Desire, going to read the post above (even if I'm not sure it'll work...)
edit: seems to work under console ( sudo ./revolutionary )
PASSED!!! :good:

Hi, I'm trying to root my phone, get CWM3, and EXT4 using the One Click Root method, but I keep getting the error that my phone is not connected. I'm using Ubuntu 10.10 so I can't Odin. I've also tried on a Windows computer and got the same result. I've searched around the forum and the web but to no avail. I can't post in the thread dedicated to the OneClickRoot because I don't have any posts. If anybody could help, it'd be greatly appreciated. Thanks.

In windows you have to install the drivers (you should have it in the CD you got with the phone). If you use ubuntu use this tutorial: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=921169
I had to post in the Q&A since i'm a newb here, but my transformer is bricked, and i tried the unbricking method seen in the development thread and I keep getting stalled at "waiting for bootloader to initilize"
does anybody know how i can fix this and get a stock rom on my transformer incase i need to rma it.
I am also running VMware as i do not have a windows pc at the moment, so i don't know if that has anything to do with it.
Any help is much appriciated, thank you.
Not sure, but does VMware support USB devices?
it does, or at least it shows apx mode when it's plugged in. I may need to just try it on an actual windows computer though :/
EDIT: for some reason it worked right after i posted that. I didn't really do anything different, htc-hd2 is just good luck i guess!
Running VMWare on what machine? A Mac ?
Can't you dualboot Windows 7 with BootCamp ?
I dont have a mac, just going on what I have heard
VMware is probably your problem. Boot up a Linux live CD and run this: Stock Honeycomb 3.2 (Actually if you have a mac you can run this too, just run extract the archive and run the bash script from the terminal)
It's a tar ball that I put together that contains the files needed to flash a stock image of 3.2 via nvflash. The archive is about 300mb IIRC.
Hey guys, I've been trying to get the Windwos version of ControlBear.exe for the JuopunutBear S-OFF method to work on my Mac. First, I installed Wine through MacPorts. Then I installed the windows drivers for HTC phones in Wine. When cd into the correct directory and type
Code:
wine ControlBear.exe
It gives me this output:
Code:
MacBook:ControlBearRelease_vigor_GB_WIN family$ wine ControlBear.exe
Dynamic session lookup supported but failed: launchd did not provide a socket path, verify that org.freedesktop.dbus-session.plist is loaded!
======== ControlBear 0.6 beta for JuopunutBear S-OFF ==========
Starting up......
Connecting to device...
Searching device.....
Connect device and install drivers
Press ENTER to exit.....
It will start up but it seems not to bridge properly over USB, if any of you know how to get past this, or any suggestions, It'd be greatly appreciated. I think it would be pretty helpful for people who don't have access to a PC. Thanks!
Bump!
Ok, I figured out the issue. Wine doesn't support USB in the default package. There is a way to add USB support to Wine in linux, but there are no official instructions for how to add USB support to Wine on a Mac...
Does anybody know how to add USB support to a MacPorts Wine install?
What if downloading a copy of windows and run it on a virtural software? That's what I did when s-off my evo 3d on my mac
Meh, I'm not too keen on that kind of stuff and plus I don't want to pay for parallels. Thanks though
hey no problem! you could always go into a friends house and borrow there pc.
I suppose... I was hoping to get it working on my Mac though, would be helpful for more than just myself.
Use a linux live CD/USB, even macs are able to do that. Messing with emulators or VMs is not a good idea for this.

I tried to post this in the "Beginners Guide for Rooting" but I do not have privileges. I am trying to root my new s3 on a mac so I am trying to follow the guidance in section one of the guide. However the links for samsung drivers are in an .exe format and the link to the java jdk files has expired. I downloaded the samsung drivers from the link and opened the (.exe) file and I attempted to install another version of the java jdk. When I connect Adam's casual the app recognizes my phone but I am unable to see it on my Mac through Finder. Am I ready to flash if the casual app can see my phone? Or do I need the osx compatible samsung drivers (not with a .exe filename) and a specific version of java jdk?
Thanks in advanced for any help. I tried to search for the answers but I have been coming up empty. Even though casual see's my phone, I'm still not sure if its ok to start flashing.

I don't remember if my phone showed up on my Mac in finder, but Adam's casual recognized my phone, I rooted and unlocked using the tool and have been flashing ROMS ever since.

Did you download the samsung drivers in the link ( the .exe files) and install them on your mac? Also do you still have a copy of the java jdk files? The link in the "guide " is dead or the files have been moved. Thanks.
Mine did not show up in finder. I did have to download another program to interface with the phone. Just run Casuals and you will be fine.

If I remember correctly, you can't download the samsung drivers on a Mac. And no, sorry I don't have the files
There is no drivers for mac. The only thing that will show is a sdcard if you have one. You are good to use Casual.

Mine doesn't show the sdcard. I can use ADB but that's the only way I can communicate to my device over USB. I have't tried Casual.
Well I finally got home so I could use my Mac with my phone. Casuals worked great a couple of weeks ago as did adb. Now, I can't get either to work. I read that some are having issues with the usb ports on the newer MacBook Pros. I will do a little know testing and see if I can find a way to make it work post back. I tried rebooting, different cables, etc with no luck. If anyone knows anything, please chime in.

Okay, after a lot of digging, I finally figured out what I did. I take no credit for this, I found it on here in reply to a thread somewhere. I can't remember where as I usually view this site on my cell phone.
sudo kextunload -v /System/Library/Extensions/EasyTetherUSBEthernet.kext
from a terminal. I forget if you have to reboot or not.
This will disable tethering, but you can now see your device via adb.
To renable tethering once you're done debugging, use
sudo kextload -v /System/Library/Extensions/EasyTetherUSBEthernet.kext
This is for EasyTether only, but I am sure that there could be another type of app that would do the same thing? If you could isolate the app, it should be as easy as replacing the EasyTether part of the command and running that. Good luck, I personally know how aggravating that things like this can be.
Hi all there, I'm really new with Android and would use it on my HTC HD MIni (NAND). Read many instructions to do the procedure, but always I will hang at the same: "Start xyz...bat....".
Guys, is anyone out there who could think, that people exist, NOT using Windows?
How should I start a .bat- file in my Lubuntu without scripting it new (if I could, think no)?
Anything, hints and links are welcome.
thanks

You can try running the bat using WINE on Lubuntu, to do so if you haven't already installed WINE run the following command from a terminal:
Code:
sudo apt-get install wine
Then after WINE is installed run:
Code:
wine cmd
Then the command below form your Wine drive folder (I.E Z: or C: )
Code:
start filename.bat

Unfortunately Odin isn't compatible with HTC devices, and mobile Odin requires root access to function and must be used with a Samsung device.
