I just released my first app on the market, "Kingdroid Scripts" great little app that i made for myself then decided to release it. i will try to keep this thread updated as i work on the app as it is still a work in progress. but right now it features all three forms of reboot at the press of a button, mounting your system as r/w and mounting and unmounting your sd card when plugged into a computer. i know for sure the app works great on TheDudes .92 build since that is what me and my beta tester are running. i will be testing it later today on a JF 1.42 phone.
there are two versions one paid(donate) and one free, but there is no difference between the two applications other than in the paid version you won't get a random dialog box asking you to donate
**TO DO**
get script to run for apps to SD and cache to SD
get script for Undo move cache/apps
polish up the UI a little, make some buttons and a better icon
listen to user requests for scripts. anything you would like you phone to do in a single button click let me know and i will see if i can implement it
Can you briefly explain what this tool does? Thank you very much!
if you are using a haykuro build it seems there is an issue, right now (tested on dude build .92) there are buttons for reboot, reboot recovery, reboot bootloader, mount sd card, and unmount sdcard. i am quickly working on getting this compatible with the haykuro builds since a lot of people have been using his builds
I have apps2sd and I unmounted my SD card.. IT worked.
Wait, so is this any different from the free and open source GScript app?
nice app man.i dl'd the paid ver. from the market.cant wait till the other options available.
james
other than in my app the scripts are included and you just open it up and hit the buttons rather than writing the scripts first no. my app is free as well, i just happen to be completely broke and jobless at this time so i decided to release a donate version. the only time you get nagged to donate in the free version is if you rotate the screen, or start the app.
@@james thank you for donating to me, i really do appreciate it, i am gonna see if i can create a widget to put reboot, reboot recovery, mount SD and unmount SD on the home screen
i am currently running haykuro's 1.5 build to see why it is not compatible, i also just grabbed the JF build so i will see if it works there too otherwise i gotta figure out what's wrong with it
yeah i went to jf's build but your app didnt work so i went back to dudes build
yeah just discovered that, i don't know what haykuro and jf did different from dude, but the app is just running commands so i don't know why it isn't working. might be kernal but i hope not as dude just updated to the same kernal and that would depress me
It is the new superuser. And, Rogro had the same issue with Gscript and fixed it. Something to do with superuser being a little more finiky about what it allows.
Dudes' .93 version has the new superuser added in.
nope dude implemented the new superuser app into the .94 build and the original version works just fine(the released version) so i still have no freaking clue as to what is going on
awesome!!!! back in bidness
MAybe make a button to auto format an SD card with that script I like so much in the dev forum. Would have to warn about loosing all data and the size of the SD card would matter for 1 of the commands.
i seriously considered this, but it may be diffucult and may require some bonus complicated work. when i though about doing it i was gonna have a second screen popup that allowed user to put in size of sdcard (easily rounded in MB so that 1000MB was 1GB) and then ask how large they wanted the ext2 partition to be and use the difference as the argument. i would have to go get another SD card for this to allow testing without totally F***ing my sdcard/phone. also i would need to go through and update it anytime the script was fixed with any minor bugfix. which may get annoying, and i would feel more than obligated to throw 20% of my earnings(which isn't much) from my donate version to martinFink and also have his permission to use the script for possible monetary gain and give him a %. might be a lot of work that i am not quite ready for, or it might not be as hard as i think. i will look into it since it was requested

I'm getting the same error message. I must be creating my gold card incorrectly. can anyone please assist. I have a registered copy of QMAT.
1. I format the SD Card - Fat32
2. I choose HARDWARE FORENSICS and Generate Gold Card.
3. I choose Rhodium as the device key
4. I click GET SD CARD SERIAL FROM WINCE DEVICE
5. I choose SAVE GOLDCARD IMAGE TO WINCE SD
6. I check to make sure it saved a file to the SD
am i missing anything? do i need to fill in "security level, bootloader-version, time:, device ID " ??

My friend have u extracted the ruu_signed.nbh? and renamed it to RHODIMG.NBH?? And copied it to your sd??
That´s the steps, though if you have any doubts, there are plenty of threads about it.
Good luck with it.
Im having trouble finding instructions to flash this could someone post, i already have a gold card made. Thanks in advance ill keep looking.
are goldcards device specific?
Thanks
working good for me
flashed with goldcard
Thanks
I'm new to this and I'm searching on how to flash using goldcard. I have no idea what that means and I can't find any results.
Can some post a full instruction or a link to a full instruction so I can add this ROM to my TP2? Thanks!!!
This doesnt work without the full version of qmat which is 20 euros. I dont have that kind of money on me right now so ill wait till i get paid or hardspl comes out.
What is QMAT?
I'm no longer keeping up with NAND on the vogue. So if anyone would like to keep me informed and email me or post me on any changes with NAND, ill be happy to add the news on the first post. The lock up issue with NAND has been fixed!
This is simply for any noobs or others who are having issues with Android and NAND.
IMPORTANT!!!
FOR VOGUE USERS ONLY
I am not responsible for any bricked or messed up devices. By continuing you are agreeing to my simple rule.
MY SIMPLE RULE: I owe you nothing.
I will help you through the way though if you bricked or need any sort of help.
How-to Video up NOW!!!
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3gTkJkOc7m4
First off, What is NAND?
To keep it simple...its your phones internal memory. Up untill recently we (Vogue Users) had to run Android off our SD cards using HARET. But thats another story.
What are the benefits of running from NAND? (based on what I have seen)
-Runs faster
-Longer Battery life
-faster boot up
-can be faster to put together.
-Easier to connect your vogue with android to your pc and sync
-Much more convenient.
So how do I start?
STEP1:
The Build
First you need to find a Build that is usable with NAND. Most Hero builds at this moment are not. Here are some links:
Donut 1.6
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=591104
Hero
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=603028
Cupcake 1.5
Method 1 from http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=593786
DO NOT DOWNLOAD ANYTHING JUST YET! I WILL TELL YOU WHEN A GOOD TIME WOULD BE
You may want to consider reading the rest...
STEP2:
Base Files (Most builds will supply these)
For all builds (Except the Link in Cupcake "instructions are givin in the download.) you will need a basic set of base files. The link below contains the 3 basic empty files for all builds and Systems.
http://cid-e5302e6abd554cb9.skydrive.live.com/self.aspx/XDA/Androidstuff.rar
IF
You are using Hero make sure you download hero.user.conf too:
http://cid-e5302e6abd554cb9.skydrive.live.com/self.aspx/XDA/hero.user.conf
-create a new folder called conf
-and place hero.user.conf in your new folder.
STEP3:
Rootfs
After you have the Base files you will need a rootfs. Depending on your Build, you may need a different type then the one I am going to supply you. Most builds will supply you with one. This one is DZO's rootfs.
http://cid-e5302e6abd554cb9.skydrive.live.com/self.aspx/XDA/rootfs.img
STEP4:
Prepare
-You need to clean out your storage on your SD. Make sure you delete everything.
-Create a file called android on your desktop.
-Download the base files, unzip, open folder, and place all 3 in your android folder
-Download the rootfs and place them in your android folder. Make sure you either download DZO's or the one your Build provides.
-Download a System.img. When you download a System most likely it will have a different name such as system-hero-123.img. You need to rename it system. So it should look like system.img . Then place it in your android folder.
-If you are using Hero place your conf folder in your android folder.
-Depending on your Build (mostly Hero) you may also need a Data file. The build you select should supply one. Download it and place it in your Android Folder
STEP5
Placing
Open up your android folder of all your collected files and select all, copy, and paste into your empty SD card.
STEP6
Unlocking
If you have never flashed a ROM before than you don't have HardSPL installed. So unlock your phone with...
http://forum.ppcgeeks.com/showthread.php?t=20370
Make sure you follow the forums directions.
STEP7
Method
Method1: The way I do it.
Download ROMUpdateUtility.rar
http://cid-e5302e6abd554cb9.skydrive.live.com/self.aspx/XDA/ROMUpdateUtility.rar
Extract to a newfolder
Download a kernel with your screen size
http://it029000.massey.ac.nz/vogue/files/?C=M;O=D
Don't know your screen size...check this out
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=544906
After you have have gotten the kernel:
rename it to RUU_signed and place it in the ROMUpdateUtility folder you created.
NOW you need to plug your phone into your computer. Establish active sync. And run ROMUpdateUtility.
-Follow the Instructions on the screen.
Method 2 and 3 can be found here:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=593786
This also shows my method...but a little less detail. You can also find many other helpful things there.
If you fail OR think your bricked your phone.
You will need to download one of these depending on your carrier...Make sure you download the shipped gps rom. (If you are Verizon skip down)
http://forum.ppcgeeks.com/showthread.php?p=191607
Than you will put your phone in boot mode. Hold the Camera and Power button. While holding both of them...get a pen or something small and hit the little restart button on the bottom of your phone. You may have to hold it for like a second.
-you will see three color bars on your phone
-plug your phone into your computer
-run the backup
After your phone is all back to normal. Make sure you run internet explore on your phone. It will enable you to get data.
For Verizon follow the instructions here.
http://wiki.ppchaven.com/index.php?title=Pocket_PC_WIki:FIX_VERIZON_GPS
That is about it. I'm sure I forgot some stuff and will add on to this. Make sure you donate to the Devs for all their hard work.

great thread. I've run both from nand and sdcard. i have not messed with ext2 on the sdcard.
I agree with 3 for sure. I would also add that there is a deep gratification in wiping win mo off the sdcard
6 is debatable, depends on which conveniences you want. changing lcd.density, changing resolution are all much faster running from the sdcard - no flashing or messing with build.prop, just edit default.txt and reboot (aside - if you have a non-sdhc card you can flash on the fly from the sdcard, but changing lcd.density still requires pulling and pushing files from the system, which is not as easy as changing the default.txt). also more convenient to back-up or revert to a data.img when running from sdcard. definitely booting straight into android is convenient, as is the new mass storage on boot method, as well as having a re-writable system (which you also have using ext2).
1 and 2, I honestly have not noted a significant difference in battery life. With a fast sdcard, I don't think there is a significant difference in speed either - dzo has said this in one of the non-vogue forums as well. i have not tried any sense builds from the sdcard though, and that's where you would notice the greatest difference in speed if there is any.
4 I agree with in general.
I think running from the nand is a huge advance, and great for everyone to try. but, running from the sdcard is still a decent way to use android. choosing between the two comes down to choosing which conveniences suit your usage style the most.
One last thing - please add vilord to your donate links (his google ion on vogue thread), he has been instrumental in developing the ril and advancing android on the vogue. srwalter also deserves mention for his reverse engineering of the libgps.so to bring gps first to cupcake and now to donut as well. jamezelle, plemen, mssmison, zenulator, enatefox, f00bar (no specific order) have all worked hard porting roms and working on things like compcache, swap, modem, etc, which has all been invaluable (zenulator and mssmison deserve special credit for spearheading the porting business). however the gruntwork of porting to the vogue has been done mainly by dzo who brought us the kernel and initial ril and now nand (he's just frickin amazing, he singlehandedly got the first functioning port to the vogue and others helped from there), then vilord who took the ril and really refined it. I guess suffice to say, there have been a lot of people involved along the way, thanks to all of them.
when i try to run android from both nand and haret i always get an error about not being able to mount sd card. does this mean i need to reformat the card? if so how do i do this?

Verizon users.
I just update a fix for Verizon users. Shows you how to get GPS too!
Also...there will be a video up soon. It seems that there are so many people having issues. So I will create a video from start to finish. Will be posted up late tonight/ tomorrow morning.

i running with a 8gig PNY sdcard
it could theoretically run off of a 512, but you would be a little cramped on space
i guess android doesnt like some of them
so really it doesn't matter how big the card is? do they all have to be formatted to fat32?

Am I correct in assuming that step 4-b is create a FOLDER name android on the desktop?
Can I delete those files from the SD when flashing is done?

Yes that is correct, as for deleting the files...I would assume you could. But im not sure. Maybe they are still needed on boot. Never hurts to try though.

Wait...NVM you want data to work right?
If you are using donut...try to restart your phone one time. After it boots back up you should see a 3g symbol appear on the notification bar.
If that does not work...go to your apps and open modem. Click once on disconnect and then once more. Then click connect.
Tell me if that works...
This is my noobe question of the day. I have the Gingerbread keyboard .apk and want to put it in the proper directory (folder) on my phone. Where does it go so it is recognized in Settings, Locale and text? Also, where can I put it in the CWM .zip file of a ROM so when I flash again it is already there?
I am currently running Continuum 5.3, which is a Gingerbread ROM.

For the keyboard it goes in sys/app .and for the rom as long as you dont master clear or reformat your intenal card just leave it there I dont believe you can access your external sd card from cwm.

It's /system/app don't shorten file trees like that it can be confusing. There is a folder called /sys and it doesn't have any apps.
You can put the keyboard in that folder before you flash it, cooking it into the rom. Also if there are any non system apps you want at first boot you can throw those in /data/app...

Cool. I realized that when I went to the Mosaic thread. Congrats!! From reading the Team Phoenix ROM posts like Mosaic and Phoenix Ultimate, it seems you have been very helpful to so many people and have helped me learn more along the way. Looking forward to checking out the updated Mosaic...hopefully tomorrow??
Yup ... And every monday.
Think my mouse clicking refresh on my browser will probably need to be replaced then after every Monday. That's what seemed like was going to happen after Mosaic had it's name and was waiting on the release. Tomorrow should now be a great day.

On a Mac so no F5 for my browser. I use Mac and Ubuntu instead of Windows, except for flashing as I'm an IT guy and prefer to use these especially to capture malware on a network. Actually prefer the mouse anyways.
Looking forward to Thursday. I'll keep this under wraps.
Note: Please keep this thread restricted to Atrix-specific and general issues. Threads for other devices are referenced at the top of the main webtop2sd thread.
Discuss webtop2sd here (the other thread will be kept clean for announcements, FAQs, etc.).
Before you report an issue:
Make sure it's not on the Known Issues list first!.
Basic debugging, since these are going to be questions I ask anyways:
If you hit problems with the Android webtop2sd application, you'll need to tell me the error, and give me the last few lines of adb logcat. Run this adb command, which will filter out most of the unimportant lines:
adb logcat ActivityManager:i AndroidRuntime:i webtop2sd:i *:s
Are you actually booting from your SD card? You can find this out by checking the Diagnostics tab in webtop2sd, under "Currently mounted webtops". If mmcblk1p12 isn't listed, you're not booted from your SD card. If this is the case, report what ROM you're running from.
Is the webtop configurator application showing, but not running successfully? If so, plug your device into your dock and run a terminal (either locally or adbWireless + adb shell) and run the following:
su
/usr/bin/sudo -H -u adas bash
export DISPLAY=:0
python /usr/local/bin/webtop-configurator.pyc
I'll need whatever output shows up.
great! thanks for making it so much easier.
haven't actually tested it b/c i sort of figured out how to do that a few days back, but still need to manually install it.
maybe i'll test your app next time i decide to reinstall my ubuntu.
btw, which script are you using to mount /osh? for me only /data/logging.sh works (it's safer anyway).
I suspect that what I'm doing isn't rocket science by any means. But, what I do seem to be pretty good at is packaging semi-complex things up for people into a manageable form with a fairly solid level of reliability. You couldn't imagine the things I'm happy that I managed to accomplish with this app, because they're so... quirky.
Anyways, I've been using /system/bin/mountosh since the beginning. I need to tweak the copy I'm using right now, since my goals have expanded beyond what I initially wrote it for. On the other hand, it'll mean that I can separate out my "personal" Ubuntu versus my "debugging" one, and that should be quite helpful.
These advances with linux customization in webtop have turned me on to Ubuntu in general. I just dumped windows xp on my desktop server and now run ubuntu super OS and studio. This takes a phone to a new level. Thanks OP!
i would love to try this out but i'm on a mac.. can you partition through disk utility?
I would complain that you beat me to it, my initial post here, except it looks like what you created is way more advanced and polished than anything I could do.
I will check it out right now. Oops, i see it is only a shell at the moment. Well I am very eager to try it.
A few questions then:
1. I assume this is similar to your last mod, in that you have just moved the Motorola environment onto the SD card, no chroot or other tricks?
2. Is the dependency problem better? Are we able to replace the motorola packages?
3. Are we still stuck with jaunty or is there a possibility to upgrade to a supported version of ubuntu?
I know this might seem like a useless question (installing regardless), but your previous work was based off the 1.5.7 firmware, would this app be supported/functional on the current 1.8.3 firmware?
Oh, and...
Thank you!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! XD

Yes I believe the most important questions here are:
1 - which version will it work for? .83? .57? or just up to .52?
2 - If the Ubuntu version could be upgraded to, say, 11? Probably not, but hey...
Regardless, your work is the only reason why I'm buying myself a lapdock and replacing my netbook, so thank you very much for this hobby of yours =)
Looks great, thanks for the hard work

Possibly; I'm not sure. At least one person I talked to said that it should be possible via command line utilities, but I'm not the best person to ask about this particular issue, not having convenient access to Mac OS X...

Heh. I've actually been planning this for over a month, after some pointers from eval- - I had a rough version running, but I wanted to make something that users would be able to take advantage of easily. Oddly, it's the UI that's been the difficult part - actually having it do stuff is (relatively speaking) the easy part.
1. Yes, this is moving the Motorola environment to the SD card. Nothing special otherwise.
2. Not really - nothing's changed on that front. I'll be tweaking some of the package states on the filesystem to make upgrades less liable to completely blow up, but if we want to keep some of the niceties that Motorola added, I'll need to port those changes forward (which I have no particular problem with doing).
3. We're stuck with Jaunty for now. Unfortunately, it looks like information I had previously in regards to a version upgrade for Ubuntu don't apply to our phone, so I'll likely start working on an upgrade to 10.04 LTS after this stabilizes.

This is the fun part. Since this is an Android application and not a script, this part should work with any version. I'm currently running 4.1.57 on my phone (I never did get around to upgrading), but once I verify it works there properly, I'll be upgrading to 4.1.83 and testing there as well. There are no issues that I'm aware of that would prevent this first application from running, and the second application (the Python/Gtk one I have planned) should be able to handle any differences between the various ROMs out there.
And the Ubuntu version upgrade question, I answered just above this.

Greyed out? I know that the "Go!" and "Uninstall" buttons tell you that it's not implemented yet, but nothing should be grayed out?

That's good to know. Luckily they were out of 10's, and I got a four. Already formatted 16 GB fat32 the rest ext3.

Now that I really look at it mine is also. So I'm guessing that's due to 1.83, or GladiAtrix. That's what I'm using.
I'll post a screenshot if you need.
I could go to stock 1.57 upgrade to 1.83 but not until tomorrow night
Thanks for the answers, Sogarth. And congratulations on your gift man, because your sum of intelligence and dedication sure is one. I'll be installing this on my Atrix as soon as it has been stabilized (and, well, actually made useful xD)
I am on Gingerblur 4.5 only things greyed out are Partitioning section, both 'Device to partition' and 'Webtop partition size' items if "Partition ext. storage" is not selected. Also under "Locations" 'Delete filesystem file' is grey if 'Source webtop' is set to 'internal storage'.
All of these being grey makes sense if you read what they are doing......

Unchecking the Partition ext. storage option "ungreyed" the Locations options and Advanced options. Didn't think about doing that since that was one of the goals of this app.
Since I manually partitioned already I should have thought of that.
