Can I get some help with Apps2SD? I used 0mb for the swap, 512mb for ext2 and then I did the ext2 to ext3. My phone still seems to be storing apps on my internal memory. I bought a class 6 8gb micro SD card & I'm on a MacBook Pro.

Are you sure its storing to the internal memory? What ROM are you using? Typical Apps2SD only moves part of the app the SD card. Others can stick more of the info on there (at a risk of reduced sd card life). If you are just rooted and no new ROM is flashed, then you aren't using apps2sd, its built into some ROMs

I'm having problems after connecting device (not mounting, just Charge Mode only), it finds it, but I can not do the push asroot2 command. I get the following:
ts-macbook-pro:~ T$ cd /users/T/android-sdk-mac_86/tools
ts-macbook-pro:tools T$ ./adb devices
List of devices attached
HT02BHF09501 device

ts-macbook-pro:tools T$ ./adb push asroot2 /data/local/
cannot stat 'asroot2': No such file or directory

I already have the stock Sprint 2.1 installed, but it's not rooted. My 2.0 was rooted. Ideas? Thanks!

I'm on Hero 1.5 / T-Mobile G2, enabled USB debug, not mounted the SD or anything and I'm getting this;

$ chmod 0755 /data/local/asroot2
$ /data/local/asroot2 /system/bin/sh
[1] Killed /data/local/asroot2 /system/bin/sh
$ mount -o remount,rw -t yaffs2 /dev/block/mtdblock3 /system
mount: Operation not permitted
$ cd /system/bin
$ cat sh > su
cannot create su: read-only file system

What am I doing wrong?
Thanks

I keep getting "Bus Error" when issuing ADB commands and have no access to the phone. This issue recently came up after a month or two of not using ADB.

Everything worked fine with 1.5. Now that I have been using Rooted 2.1 ROMS (currently Damage) I am unable to use commands.

Anyone know what "Bus Error" means and how to correct it? (I have uninstalled and reinstalled the SDK to no avail)

Thanks in advance.

Is anything different in these instructions for a Hero running 2.1 out of the box?

I'm getting stuck on step 6. I put in the first line and this is what i get

King-Kobras-MacBook-Pro:tools adamkelly$ ./adb push asroot2 /data/local/
cannot stat 'asroot2': No such file or directory

I'm not really sure what I'm doing wrong but any help would be great.

Do you have the 2.1 update installed on your phone? Just asking since you are rooting for the first time and want to make sure that you didn't update to 2.1. If you did, then follow this guide provided by Beezy: http://forum.androidcentral.com/htc-...ing-2-1-a.html

Otherwise I would double check ot make sure you have downloaded asroot2 and placed it in the /sdk/tools folder.

[kingkobra813]

I do not have the 2.1 installed on my phone. but I do want it.

should I root it then install 2.1 or should I install 2.1 then root my phone?

the main things I want are to tether for wireless and have 2.1.

and your right i never placed the asroot2 in the /sdk/tools folder.

p.s. I'm new to this so I'm most likely going to be asking a lot of stupid questions with easy fixes.

thanks

If you have 1.5 then root that don't upgrade then root.Ask as many questions as you need to we are all here to learn and sometime the best way is to ask a questions,so sing out when you need help.

alright after the first problem everything went fine until last step where I put the code
reboot recovery

now my phone is stuck at the htc screen when you turn on your phone.

I think I remember reading that it does take a while. but how long should I wait on this screen before I take out the battery?

It should only take a few min a most.Did you give it a little time after entering in command to flash recovery image?

[kingkobra813]

yeah I gave it the amount of time it said until the # popped up so I could do the next command. its been about 15 mins now and still nothing.

Try the reboot recovery again.

[kingkobra813]

operation not permited.

should i just try the whole thing over?

[beezy]

I would try starting at step8.

[kingkobra813]

if i start at step 8 it says device not found.

so I started all the way over and now I'm stuck at the htc screen again.

Let me find the link to a different recovery,seems your phone like sum others doesn't like the 1.5.2 recovery image.

[kingkobra813]

ok thank you very much

[beezy]

No prob,grab the newer recovery from the post.Then just edit your commands so that it says 1.6.2.If your not a member i can download and upload it for you if need be.
