Bluetooth DUN on CM 7.1.0

Hi all,
I spent a couple of days Googling around, trying to get Bluetooth DUN working on Cyanogenmod 7.1.0 on my Viewsonic GTablet.
After some hacking around with the source, I got it working. I can connect my GTablet to the internet through my Blackberry Torch on Rogers (in Ontario, Canada).
I've already posted my notes to the CM forums, but apparently since I'm a noob here I can't post the link to it, so here's my notes (direct copied from the CM forums):
Dial-up networking requires the chat binary, which is included in the standard Linux ppp package. For some reason, this binary was omitted from the Android ppp package, so I downloaded the Android 2.3.7 source, copied the chat source in to the Android ppp package and built it from scratch. The instructions for this were found at afewe DOT wordpress DOT com/android-arm-development/use-point-to-point-protocol-ppp-in-android/
Once the chat binary is installed in the proper location on the Android device (/system/bin/chat) it's just a matter of writing a pppd config and chatscript for your given provider. These configs can be found in the berry4all package at berry4all DOT com.
I copied the 'rogers' file from that package and put it in /etc/ppp/peers/rogers, then the rogers-chat file and put it in /etc/ppp/chatscripts/rogers-chat.
I modified the /etc/ppp/peers/rogers so that the last line, which calls the chat binary, reflected the proper locations of the binary and the chat script.
Finally, I removed the 'novj' option from the pppd config. Once the config was all up and ready to go, I went to the terminal and did:
$ su
# rfcomm bind /dev/rfcomm0 <BT MAC> <channel>
# pppd call rogers
And voila! A stable, bluetooth dial-up network connection through my phone.
I just wanted to throw out my notes first to make people aware that its possible and easy. If there's enough interest, I'll write a more detailed and specific step-by-step howto on getting it set up.

Hi,
I see that CM 7.1 includes "bluetooth tether" support now but it's not clear to me what this actually is. Does CM 7.1 include the DUN bluetooth profile? It sounds like you're using reverse tethering, i.e. you are using a Blackberry's data connection so you're using the DUN profile on the Blackberry and are using the CM device as a client?
I have a stock Desire S and am looking for DUN support so I can use the internet access in my car through the Desire's 3G connection. The car supports only DUN and PDANet doesn't work for some reason.
Thanks,
Tim

Looks like you're out of luck.... same story for my Benz with Comand Online Navcom system.
If you drive an MB like me, you'll have to wait for an update later this year (from MB that is)... or buy a BlackBerry.

Is it confirmed that mercedes benz are providing this update?

I very much doubt it (I'm also trying to get it working with Comand Online).

Not great news.

From the press release:
"An option for customers having phones without DUN support is the Mercedes-Benz “Bluetooth (SAP) telephone module - V4″, available early 2012. The new version (V4) offers UMTS capability, allowing fast data connection using customer SIM card or accessing SIM information from SAP (SIM Access Profile) enabled mobile phone."
and:
"... Furthermore Mercedes-Benz is in close talks with leading Android phone vendors to enable the DUN feature in their phones by default."
(I have Android 2.3 and Windows Phone 7.5 devices)

Yes, so we can pay £400 for a SAP module or buy a new phone if anyone actually launches an Android handset with DUN - remembering that Google appear to have zero interest so it will be manufacturer specific. Oh yes, I nearly forgot - Android doesn't have SAP profile support either!
I'd say the chances of Mercedes updating existing systems to work with phones which don't support DUN is virtually zero. Hardly ideal on a system which cost £2000...
Cheers,
Tim

I agree. It was a huge mistake of MB to go with this dead BT DUN protocol!

I thought Android phones do support SAP, isn't that why the car can dial a contact?

'fraid not, that uses PBAP (phone book access protocol).

Probleme V10.1 TurkoCFW S4 Style: S8530 (Wave II)

I install the rom V10.1 TurkoCFW S4 Style: S8530 (Wave II), the concern is that it can not connect on Facebook or twiter or otherwise. Would you have a solution?

Hi, never had such issue with Turko (i'm on Badadroid now but i used Turko before). Make sure your APN (internet profiles under bada) are well configured, and that all applications use the good APN (you can choose which profile to use for each type of apps : java, gps, tv....)

[NDK & VNC] VNC server on Android

I am currently working on VNC server that can run in android native environment (AOSP).
With help from libvncserver and droid-vnc-server, I could load VNC server daemon running on the android.
So far, I tried in Nexus 7, Galaxy Tab 3 (10.1 x86), Galaxy prevail, Nexus 4, Galaxy S3.
Only in galaxy prevail returns a screen installed by libvncserver. I think libvncserver does not deal with 32 bpp.
Whereas droid-vnc-server runs fine in Nexus 7 and Galaxy Tab 3 but once I try to connect to VNC server, the server returns only black screen.
It looks like the problem is that rfb is not correctly getting framebuffer.
Nexus 7 has Tigra and Galaxy tab 3 uses raw fb0 (YAY x86!!)
Did anyone successfully run droid-vnc-server ????

3120
As of now, I was able to:
* make it run on Samsung Galaxy S3 i9300 without code change
* make it run on Samsung Galaxy Tab 3 10.1 with code change:
- using fb method, mmap() call succeed but it appears that the virtual memory is never updated (a black screen if displayed on vnc cleint side) => so I have "simulated" the mmap() behavior by re-readingfb0 again and again (for sure it is not effeicient but it is functional)
However, I cannot make it run on Samsung Galaxy S3 i9305.
=> mmap() fails everytimes on fb0
=> ioctl always reports a bad height of ...50px => it corresponds to the android banner....
=> if I replace mmap() by the looping read algorithm, I could see the 720x50px windows reported on the VNC client side....so not the full screen....
=> using ioctl -rl 28 /dev/graphics/fb0 17920, I confirm that height is well seen at 50px .... so, again, seems to be a wrong value

Hi Pierre, could you pls provide the apk? I'd like to test it on my Samsung Galaxy S4 (GT-I-9505).

[APP] [4.4.2+] [NO ROOT] [BETA] ERA - Easy Remote Access (Hacking)

Official ERA thread
Hi, I want to share with you my app i worked on last month.
The goal is to find the easiest way to hack into a Windows computer, and now you can with just few taps.
Features:
-ERA supports all Windows OS (XP / Vista / 7 / 8 / 10).
-No antivirus detected it ( Tried: Avira, AVG, Avast and more )
-Bypass of the firewall ( ERA doesn't get intercepted by a firewall )
-Completely silent ( ERA doesn't give any output the the victim unless your decision )
-Always running ( Once you load it the first time, ERA will be loaded and available everytime the computer is on )
-All in one ( All you need to hack is inside this app )
Functionalities:
-Download / Upload Files
-Access to the terminal commands
-Get informations about users, os, and recover all wifi stored passwords
Options:
-Lan / Gan connections ( You can hack inside or outside a wifi network, selecting a specific ip/dns or with a simple automatic scan of the entire network )
-Custom ports ( You decide what ports ERA will use to connect and transfer data )
Requirements:
-Java installed into the targeted computer.
More:
-No Ads
-No data collected ( ERA won't collect any personal information )
Tested on:
-Samsung Galaxy Alpha
-Hisense Sero 7
-Yotaphone 2
-Nexsus 5
Instructions:
1. Go to settings menu and select "Create ERA", and insert the right configuration
( you can leave all as default, except for the ip, it depends on what you need:
-ipScan: simply it scans all the ip inside the LAN network, in this way you can change private ip and it will anyway automatically connect)
-specify ip: you can set the private or public ip (or dns) you prefer
!IMPORTANT! > The ip you will insert is the one of your device! Not of the remote ip! In case you specify a public ip you must Port forward your router! (This due to a connection method called Reverse connection, needed to bypass the firewall)
2. Send the created .jar executable to the computer you want to access remotely
3. Enjoy functionalities
A simple tutorial:
