Guest pfsykes Posted August 10, 2010 Report Share Posted August 10, 2010 Yes, it´s there... i will try to use the full path to tun.ko now! EDIT: does not work at all.... any hints? EDIT2: okay.. insmod tun.ko with adb shell worked, now I have some hopefully minor error: ifconfig could not execute external program. That was to be my next question. I use VPNC and OpenVPN Settings. Did you get it workoing. Silly question im looking for a free vpn access only for VOIP as T-Mobile block the ports and I dont want to pay an extra £22 ontop of my normal monthly contract.

Can you post the whole of the log and ommit the user name password ip address by using XXXX in its place. It might help I use VPN Connection for my Cisco VPN and open vpn settings for my other vpns Might want to give them a try. Peter Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest FatherD Posted August 11, 2010 Report Share Posted August 11, 2010 There is no bootanimation.zip present at all in baked Rom. I posted before that adding your own to data\local or system\customize/resource don't work. And there is an android_audio.mp3 but it doesn't get played. ! works for me using ADB to /system/customize/resource on r7 :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Mekerz Posted August 11, 2010 Report Share Posted August 11, 2010 Flashed r8 over r7 and have had absolutely no issues at all, apart from the fact the .zip files I uploaded to the kitchen which contains a bootanimation.zip in /system/customize/resource didn't end up putting my custom animation at boot. Not an issue, I'm sure I can push it via adb to both there and the system linked one in /data. So thanks a lot for the work Paul, I had 50% battery earlier after 23 hours unplugged and I had been using my phone quite a bit too - certainly hasn't been trying to squeeze life out of the phone. So that speaks volumes in my opinion. I couldn't get AdFree working on r7, it would download the host file but ads still appeared even after rebooting like the app recommends but I'm happy to report it's working on r8 for me, so I'm very happy. My AdFree membership @ Modaco really is worth while :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest simonp2 Posted August 11, 2010 Report Share Posted August 11, 2010 been on R5 since I got the phone and this evening did a wipe and went up to R8 all appear to be working fine. When I cooked my rom I left out all the facebook and the likes and all smooth. Will get an idea of battery usage tomorrow thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest z7x8c9 Posted August 11, 2010 Report Share Posted August 11, 2010 I just baked a new R8 ans installed it... a couple of things I noticed: - htc wallpapers are missing (the static ones, not the live ones...) - i'm having trouble syncing gmail... it allways says syncing is experiencing problems (something like that...) but this maybe a non rom related issue... apart from that... facebook sync works and everything else appears to be fine... tomorrow will be a real world testing, let's see how it goes!

Yeah - just realised Standard HTC Wallpapers are indeed missing here too, as per a few other comments, when doing a Wipe and Clean install. (But know you have already said you are investigating this anyway Paul) I hadn't noticed, as my Titanium Restore brings them back for me...

Guest RevoWution Posted August 11, 2010 Report Share Posted August 11, 2010 Has anybody else noticed that the default HTC "embarrassed" emoticon is a bit squished than the others? The other emoticons are fine, it's just the "embarrassed" one. I'm running r7 btw. Will flash r8 over r7 and see if this is fixed :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest RevoWution Posted August 11, 2010 Report Share Posted August 11, 2010 Hmmm, it appears the "embarrassed" emoticon issue is still present in r8 :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest KingDan Posted August 11, 2010 Report Share Posted August 11, 2010 I noticed that the wireless n is disabled in the kitchen by default, is there a problem with it? I've noticed that when I use it on my D-Link router that after a while it times out (the router I'd assume as the computer and everything else loses internet connectivity and have limited or no connectivity). Please advise me. I'd like to keep my router strictly on wireless n only and not just g. The router doesn't timeout when it's on g. (I might just see the data network come up for a moment and then it's back to wireless) I'm changing my router shortly but this might not solve the problem. And another question while I'm here, why does the phone start up asking me if I want to use Sense UI or the other launcher? Even when I set it to default, it still asks me when the phone reboots amongst other things. It's like the setting doesn't save. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Arty Marty Posted August 11, 2010 Report Share Posted August 11, 2010 Just flashed the R8 over the top of R7 All ok. Superuser has updated, my flashlight is now a torch... :) its nice and snappy The boot animation has changed to just the word Android, with an animated reflection effect I saw a good one somewhere that had the HTC logo I think, with a little greeen android guy in 3d popping his head out from behind it... Anyone know where it is? One question is, can we please have a English (Australian) locale? Someone mentioned this a while back... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest shaigrin Posted August 11, 2010 Report Share Posted August 11, 2010 Hi all. Maybe the question is dumb but you guys have much more expirience with android. If everything works great with Paul's rooted froyo rom from August 4, why change to MCR? Just for the customization in HTC apps and A2SD or there's change in performance?

Can someone let me know if that have it working on r8? Yeah, Vibrate on shutdown is working for me. Had it disabled on r7 and then re-enabled it in the r8 kitchen and flashed without a full wipe and its working fine. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest theblueraja Posted August 11, 2010 Report Share Posted August 11, 2010 When using the default Android Contacts application is there any way that you can search for a contact via the phone keypad like you do with the HTC contacts app? I.e typing 456, searches for contacts with GHI, JKL, MNO in the name etc. Also, how do i change the default BACK to the HTC contacts version after setting the android one to default accidentally.
