apk over bluetooth

In atrix 2 files app you can share almost any file through bluetooth.
Is there a limit on the files?
Is it possible to change it, so you can send any file.

I don't know about the Mototola file manager but I'm sure I've sent apk's over bluetooth before simply by changing the file extension... I think it was OI file manager that I tried it with and I always got errors when the transfer should have started...

[TUTORIAL] Recover WIFI password CWM ZIP

This is a simple tutorial how to create a CWM flashable ZIP for readding your WIFI
password (useful if it's really long).
WARNING: ONLY USE GB WPA_SUP. WITH OTHER GB ROMS, OR ICS WPA_SUP. WITH OTHER ICS ROMS, NOT ICS WITH GB (thanks crybert)
First download the attached file and extract it to whereever you want.
Then, take your phone and copy the wpa_supplicant.conf located in /data/misc/wifi/ to the SD-Card to get it into your Computer.
- Open the attached homeNetPrepared.zip with WinRAR or 7zip etc..
- The attached zip file includes a folder named data, in it there is misc and there is wifi . Insert your wpa_supplicant.conf here.
- Now close it and put it on your phone.
If you flash it, you'll be able to connect to your network without retyping your (long) password after a factory reset or etc. .
i hope this is useful

lol, this is one of my first threads

nice Patch, but i think looking into my router is faster and easier because i can copy paste it from there.
but Thanks it's a very intereting patch.

yes, but after flashing a new rom/wiping data it's good to have that zip to flash right after the rom, so you don't need to type in the password again

When you will use an wpa_supplicant.conf which was used in ICS for example and then flash the file on a gingerbread rom, It can break you wifi.
This is because of different ctrl_interface names.
At least this happend to me once.

All Downloads failing from Browser (Permissions Problems?)

My TF101 was stuck in a CWM bootloop and I used adb to push a few files (stock rom and new recovery) into the directory "/sdcard/Download"...
I then installed those and fixed the bootloop issue but now whenever I try to download something in Chrome or the Stock Browser, it fails. I now look into the filesystem and realize that I have a folder "/sdcard/Download" which I created with adb... and "/sdcard/download" which is from my old installation.
I'm unable to delete the files I put in "/sdcard/Download" and I'm thinking there's some problems with permissions. I rooted my device again and tried to use adb to delete those files and that directory but I get a permission denied message.
Does anyone have any ideas on how I can fix this so I can fix my downloading issues?

Try this method:
1. Boot into recovery mode,
2. then select cwm,
3. select advanced
4. select fix permissions then reboot.
Hope that would work

Thanks, I tried that also and it didn't work.
I forgot to mention, I also did "su" before I tried to erase through ADB.
I checked out the permissions through chmod and both download folders and files have the same permissions. Am I supposed to do something with mounting that directory?

I don't think it has anything to do with your previous bootloop bro. This happened to me today as well. I didn't do anything specific to fix it. Like you said, browser downloads weren't working. Try Overskreen. I haven't gone back and tried again on Chrome or any other browser I have other than Overskreen because I just thought Chrome was being screwy.

I've tried on Chrome, and it fails too. I don't think it's related to my previous bootloop problem, I think it's because I created a folder called, "/sdcard/Download" with ADB because if I try to add a file to that directory, I get a Permission Denied error.

Maybe try to clear your browser's data and catche.

Well i would think that you can just use terminal or a adb root session and change permissions on that folder to read/write. it's odd to me that you didn't already have that folder. or at least /mnt/sdcard/Download

I tried to modify the folder/files through adb root session... Doing a chmod shows that the folder and files have write permissions already. I'm still am unable to modify any files in the folder or the folder itself.
I was able to find a workaround because Dolphin Browser HD uses "mnt/sdcard/download". So now I can use Dolphin to download files from the internet but Chrome/Stock Browser still don't work.

I have the same problem, I deleted the partition /persist and now does not turn on Wi-Fi, my folder has only one binary, do not know what the solution.
Edit: We need a binary and a folder in that partition, I guess flashing one. Zip partition be solved, just do not know how to do it, I need the files to assemble. I do not know if we can assist in that, since I have already used the RSD lite for flashing full firmware and nothing, you can not, brand error...

Any Terminal Emulator/SSH client (connect to local) will allow you to type chmod (modify file permissions)/chown (modify file ownership) commands - you need to be comfortable with using command line interface in Linux.
Alternatively, most file explorer apps (like ES File Explorer) will also allow you to change file permissions/ownership.
You will have to allow root access for the terminal emulator or file explorer.

I have the same problem. It's possible to have the solution step by step please?
I have Windows and the official ROM is in Motorola Razr HD (4.1.2).
Where to copy the file?

Also went nuts with formatting and I formatted both Persist and Firmware, now wifi does not work. I have the pacman rom, can the experts please give detailed steps, sorry really a newb...
I do have Terminal Emulator and File Manager (both came with Pacman Rom)
1. Am I supposed to create a folder called persist and move the bin file in there?
- This did not work for me
Please Help, thanks!!!

Got it to work, here are some instructions that worked for me, used the bin file as opposed to zip and root explorer made things easier...

I forgot about this thread and somehow learned how to use it by trying xD Thanks anyway!
And also I suggest to use Root Browser and change permissions there.

Recovered my phone
I had this issue as well. I'm posting my results here in hopes that it helps someone somewhere who encounters the same issue.
I have a XT925 (Motorola Razr HD) with Clockwork mod recovery, unlocked bootloader and Slimkat 4.4.2 Build 3 Rom. I decided to update my bootloader to 4.4 compatible version, but in order to do that I first needed to downgrade to stock 4.1.2 I follow the stepshere for my device.
I somehow ****ed it up with an old version of RSD lite and after much work with command lines, flashing different recoveries, backups and shifting through kitkat versions I ended up with out wifi no matter what rom i was on. I flashed back to stock with RSD -no wifi, restored a backup -no wifi, upgraded rom version -no wifi. I cleared partitions, wiped numerous times.
To make a long story short, the solution in this thread worked. Simply put:
Ensure you have root access and a working ROM.
download a copy of the mentioned wlan bin file (mirror at the bottom)
get your hands on es explorer
connect your device via USB
place 'WCNSS_qcom_wlan_nv.bin' file somewhere where you can find it easily using ES explorer
enable root add on for es explorer, its in the settings list
move it to /persist, it's in the root.
hold on the file and select 'properties' or something to that effect.
change (or rather ensure) the permissions are READ & WRITE only for both owner and group (-rw -rw ---)
underneath permission you should see owner: set that to WIFI
exit and reboot
I know this is just reiterating what xXLuHXx, and many others have posted, but i wanted to ensure it was clear. You can do this via command line with adb I'm sure, but this is a fool proof way, and it worked for me.
Here are some links:
Es Explorer apk
Mirror for WCNSS_qcom_wlan_nv.bin (not sure if its the same link as the others have posted, but it's here)
Hope this helps someone

[Q] How to share apk/iso files over bluetooth

Ok when I want to send a jpg or txt or whatever over bluetooth is easy but when I try to send an apk or iso file the bluetooth option isn't even there. After searching the net the options are change the extension to .txt or something that it allows or use an app.
My question is is there a way like a MOD or a custom ROM like CM to allow the sharing of these files natively like you go to your favorite file manager (I use Astro file manager) select the file and share it.

There's this app.
And there's also an explanation here that explains why we can't send too much big files over BT.

Change the name in a file explorer to .txt and send. Then change back to .apk after

Guys I want to do it without using an app and without changing the extension.
And the file I tried to send was like 4 mb.

Blame the people who shared mp3s on their phones over Bluetooth like 5 years ago.

can be done
So this can be done. Many Roms modify the bluetooth.apk to allow receiving of any file type. All you need to do is find a modified Bluetooth.apk and then replace the existing one in /system/app and then set the perms to RW r r with owner root root.
Cm11 allows sending and receiving any file type so I tried the Bluetooth.apk from the hammerhead image. Unfortunately cm11 is too different from stock so Bluetooth kept crashing.
The other option is for someone to modify the stock app for us and repost it. The following thread gives an example of what to do. Essentially you have to recompile the bluetooth.apk from source code of the aosp. Before doing this you must modify constants.java in the bluetooth source.
I'm not sure how to do this so any help would be much appreciated.
