Guest giorgit Posted April 28, 2010 Report Share Posted April 28, 2010 Does it all mean that we can not install Custom ROM on Desire? :huh: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest theboxman Posted April 28, 2010 Report Share Posted April 28, 2010 Well my new HTC Desire toy arrived yesterday.....and I've been installing apps round the clock.... I'm delighted that you seemed to manage to root the device litterally as it arrived in the post! I've got a little trepedation on two issues about continuing....here's the for and against: For: *I'm an app junkie. My old Windows Mobile installations always used to get clogged up because of the amount I'd install...and I can see myself filling this phone up at an alarming rate. Hence storing apps on the SD card would be very welcome. *This is necessary for installing unapproved programs, right? That's to say to liberate myself from reliance on the marketplace? *I have been using what is essentially 'wireless tethering' on every PDA phone I've ever owned - and I've owned quite a few....It's not a feature I could easily sacrifice! Against: *I'm very attached to the look - backgrounds and widgets, custom HTC toys etc of my current installation. I hear talk of ROM updates which makes me suspect that far from a simple hack in the software that I can hammer in to some terminal prompt on the device I'll have to start the installation afresh.... *I would need to be certain that whatever ROM I was using supported both *spanish* and english. *I've put a -huge- effort into installing apps over here...would I need to re-install them all or is there some way of saving them somewhere and restoring them later? Thanks again all for your help and advice! And great work Paul! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest mrshark Posted April 28, 2010 Report Share Posted April 28, 2010 (edited) ] i did this and did not get anywhere, just got this output, magic@ubuntu:~$ cd pushfiles magic@ubuntu:~/pushfiles$ ./adb-linux kill server bash: ./adb-linux: No such file or directory magic@ubuntu:~/pushfiles$ sudo ./adb-linux start server [sudo] password for magic: sudo: unable to execute ./adb-linux: No such file or directory magic@ubuntu:~/pushfiles$ sudo ./recovery-linux.sh ./recovery-linux.sh: 2: ./adb-linux: not found ./recovery-linux.sh: 3: ./adb-linux: not found ./recovery-linux.sh: 4: ./adb-linux: not found magic@ubuntu:~/pushfiles$ could the problem be that i dont have sdk installed on linux? absolutely YES, you need sdk, as stated many times in previous posts... and installation notes need to include this prerequisite, too ;-) p.s.: check if a command is present, with "ls" in a given dir... if not, something is missing... sdk, for sure... oh, and java jdk, eventually, too, as android sdk do not work without java jdk or permissions: (sudo) chmod +x adb* Edited April 28, 2010 by mrshark Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest ajnabi Posted April 28, 2010 Report Share Posted April 28, 2010 Paul, now that you've rooted the Desire, and I will no doubt try later on, one more question.... Are you able tweak petrol engines to run water, because the prices are sky high in the UK, or is that asking for too much....... :huh: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest sucramco Posted April 28, 2010 Report Share Posted April 28, 2010 finaly rooted.. and lov'in it. 1. do not use virtual box it does not work. 2. get the 32 bit version of ubuntu (install off live cd) not the 64 bit version. 3. give paul your thanks and 4. enjoy. point 2. when you say install. Do you actually have to install or does it run off the disc. I have downloaded, I am possibly going to give it a go. I have windows 7 installed with no partitions.

Guest dreamdealer Posted April 28, 2010 Report Share Posted April 28, 2010 (edited) also i get this magic@ubuntu:~/pushfiles$ ./adb-linux attributes bash: ./adb-linux: No such file or directory magic@ubuntu:~/pushfiles$ download ubuntu 32 bit download Img burn use imgburn to burn the ubuntu 32 bit iso to a cd. reboot your computer (enter boot menu) or bios and set first boot device to cdrom or dvdrom. (what ever shows up) choose install ubuntu without any changes to the system. once ubuntu is loaded. open the terminal. type wget pushfiles.zip (think this works don't quote me i had my files on usb stick) once downloaded extract to your ubuntu desktop in terminal cd to the directory of the pushfile folder. next type sudo passwd root add password next su root (type in your password) next type ./adb-linux kill-server (return) then type ./adb-linux start-server (return) then type ./recovery-linux.sh (return) this worked for me, then follow the rest of the instructions at the beginning of this post. (forgive me if i have missed something. i tryed) Edited June 3, 2011 by Paul Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Silvake Posted April 28, 2010 Report Share Posted April 28, 2010 also i get this magic@ubuntu:~/pushfiles$ ./adb-linux attributes bash: ./adb-linux: No such file or directory magic@ubuntu:~/pushfiles$ do i need the sdk installed on linux for this to work? Are you using 64 bit ubuntu? Run sudo uname -a and post output here. If so, I guess the error is related to adb-linux beeing compiled in a 32-bit environment; check this with: sudo ldd ./adb-linux To solve this, you may need to install 32-bit libraries in ubuntu: Try sudo apt-get install ia32-libs and then try the recovery script again. Should work now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Silvake Posted April 28, 2010 Report Share Posted April 28, 2010 i thought x86 ment 32 bit?? No, linux kernels compiled for 64-bit architectures have the x86_64 label. The 32-bit kernels are i386, i586 or i686 (ix86) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Enjoy! Paul, maybe you could add those instructions (i.e. install 32-bit libraries in ubuntu64) to one of the first posts. I see many folks encountered this issue, maybe it'll help them (and this forum not becoming bloated). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
