Is there any way to open .exe file on the lapdock???
;0
You know how they say there are no dumb questions..... well this one is. But i will answer it
exe files are windows executables. Neither the phone nor the lapdock runs windows, so no you can't open an exe on the lapdock.

lol. This was kind of funny.
But actually I haven't looked to much in the developer section but can't he use the Ubuntu webtop mod then install WINE on it and then run the .exe file.
I'm not sure about this.
I don't believe WINE has support for the tegra 2 platform yet. I could be wrong though.

In other words, just change the file extension to something that Linux can run.

There is something for windows that is way easier ABD, all I know this is only for Windows. Mac users you'll have to download Crossover (http://crossover-mac.en.softonic.com/mac) first then download Droid Explorer
Here's are the features of Droid Explorer
1. Multiple Device Support, Copy and auto-apply update.zip, Copy local files to device
2. Auto detection of connected/disconnected device
3. APK file icon and extended information, Device command shell window
4. Reboot device, Reboot device in to recovery mode, Flash Recovery Image
5. Open files for viewing / execution locally with the default file type executable, Drag & Drop file copy from Explorer
6. Package Manager (Install & Uninstall), No need to mount SD card to access files from computer
7. Access files in other directories besides SD card
8. Display open with dialog to specify what to open a file with
9. Right click APK and Install /Uninstall, Delete files from device
10. Take a Screen Shot, Plugins can register as a component to open files, Open from within Computer

Download Droid Explorer to Manage Google Android Phone on Windows.
Just installed it on my laptop with XP SP3 and it just crashes whenever I try to run it......
Edit:
Just downloaded Droid Explorer 0.8.4.3 Beta and that version loads at least.

Forgive me if I misunderstood your intent with that statement, but...
That kind of elitist attitude will only ensure the ultimate demise of what you love. THE community.
You were a n00b once.
Too many noobs in my mind means too many people who don't know what they are doing, or more importantly WHY they are doing it.
While I am relatively new to the android scene, I am certainly not new to *nix, and so I think it is important to understand what you are doing when you customize what is essentially a linux computer with a Java-Based applications platform, and GUI.
It is important to READ before you just go foraging ahead, and this tool makes it much easier for someone who doesn't know what they are doing to do something wrong.
@windows user:
it is using microsoft net framework, so you must install one (download free from microsoft.com) to run application.
@author:
I think this is good idea for whom doesnt how to use adb, or hasnt got enough time to understand adb tool.
Please make it better.
Thanks
Has anyone had an error message:
"Droid Explorer has stopped working
Windows is checking for a solution to this problem..."
I have Windows 7 Home premium x64 with microsoft .NET 4.0 framework. I tried the x64 and x86 versions, get the same error message with both.
Edit: I installed the beta 0.8.7.2 and it seems to be working fine so far.
Edit Edit: I am having a hell of a time getting it to recognize my phone. I'm using a Windows 7 x64 box, Motorola Droid, I have busybox installed, my drivers are all up to date, .NET 4.0 framework, USB Debugging ticked. Is there anything else I have overlooked?
Heres the deal. I have a MAC with a newly installed hard drive. On my old hard drive I had everything setup with SDK and Adb but that was when I had an HTC Hero. My problem is this: When in terminal my damn computer keeps prompting me for a password but it doesnt allow me to type anything except control C which aborts the program. It never was like that with the old hard drive.
2. Ive dl SDK for MAC unzipped it and saved it to my desktop and my hard drive.
3. When I click on tools it says "adb_has_moved.txt"
4. It says the adb tool has moved to platform-tools/ and if you dont see this directory in your SDK, launch the SDK and AVD manager and install "android SDK Platform-tools and also update my path environment variable to include the platform-tools/ directory, so I can execute adb from any location. What the heck does this mean and how do I fix it. Also how do I know if SDK is installed correctly.
5. I DL some version of eclipse that was recommended from SDK but I dont know how to use that either.
6. I have tried all the root methods shown here in XDA except the on with the Dock since I dont have a dock.
7. Also ADB does not recognize my device and my debug is selected. I cannot get it to find my device.
8. One last question when some instructions say unzipped and move the root exploit to /data/tmp/ is that the file labeled under sdcard/data or is it the one inside the Android Folder listed as "data"
Please anyone help if possible.
let me try that
Stupid question but How do I launch SDK?

Make sure your phone has USB Debugging Mode enabled. Otherwise, adb will not recognize your device.
Check this thread: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=879701
However, you will have to modify for MAC.
In my opinion the easiest way to root the Photon is still using the dock method. Otherwise, try the One Click Root method (Torpedo) as mentioned above. Then you don't have to worry about issuing all the commands.
I got it done I got it done. What I did was borrow my daughters windows netbook and the one click method worked on the first try. Thanks to all who replied. I will definitely hit your thanks buttons.

im sorry.. my tool was a one click i dint think i needed to give it instructions.. especially teh part of how to run it on your computer... just fyi.. when invoking sudo (to do things as admin/root) on your computer. you are asked to enter in your password.. as a privacy/security feature it will NOT display any characters.. ergo it looks blank...
as you arent teh first one to run into this issue ill add instructions for mac users ( i know anyone running linux can figure out how to run a bash script, and windows users have a bat file after installing 209387249087 drivers... but they still figure it out ;P)
True NOOB, I am trying Fenny's webtop hack for Atrix. I installed FDK so I could install SDK (i think that was the order, i got there anyway). I downloaded WinRAR so i could unzip and get to .apk file for portal and dock service. I have no idea how to "run INSTALL.bat from the unzipped files". I run windows xp pro and I downloaded the correct .apk files for my Atrix. Over my head, clueless (although I did stumble painfuly this far searching and reading everything I could). I am sure there is some basic knowledge I am missing and would appreciate guidance. BTW I can't enter any characters in my sdk manager.exe
First off, thanks to msullivan for providing the BackTrack 5.0 image!
I've made this as easy as possible. Not for novice users.
I chose backtrack as the image (instead of ubuntu) because i LOVE backtrack. I've used it as my main on-the-go linux for a while. Mainly because I hack all the wifi I'm around so i have a constant NET connection
This script requires ADB installed and ROOT!
Required Apps
Busybox - Download and install busybox
Terminal Emulator
Any VNC Client that supports LINUX
Installation
Download the image and attached scripts (BT5_Install.zip)
http://www.ulozto.net/xfHz8JJ/primelinuxbacktrack5-zip
Rename the image to BT5.zip and copy to /sdcard/ - I would copy in the script, but ADB is WAAAY slow.
Unzip BT5_Install.zip into your ADB folder - Or anywhere if you have ADB set with environmental variables
Make sure device connected and responds to adb (adb devices)
run install.bat
This will push the proper scripts, open the image up for use and run necessary scripts
This process does take time. No longer than 10 minutes. Script will notify when complete.
---Linux is now installed!---
Open terminal emulator and type: (do this any time you want to start your linux if you have shut it down or the TFP has restarted)
su
cd /sdcard/bt5
sh bt
Type Y at the prompt
VNC into 127.0.0.1:5901 with password 'root' with any VNC program you like
PROFIT
Change Resolution!!
Open terminal in Linux
Type pico /usr/bin/startvnc
Xhange resolution to 1280x800
Type ctrl x
Yes
restart TFP
Look absolutely AMAZING now
Notes:
If the bt5 folder on /sdcard/ is ever deleted, you will lose your linux and need to re-install!
This has been tested and confirmed by me!
Can you tell I like formatting?? hahaha
Need help with ADB? Click HERE for my guide!
Im using POCKETCLOUD in Windows mode (it connect to linux as well!)
The GUIDE is not finite. Please post anything you feel should be added/corrected to the guide.
Thanks and 5 star would make me feel good inside too!
Yes!!!!I was wondering when we would see this for the TP. I wonder how long it will be till somone asks about monitor mode and packet injection. Let me go ahead and announce it... AIRCRACK WILL NOT WORK!!! Had to do it.. every backtrack thread on this forums is full of kids saying "I can hax0rz wifi?"
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I727
lol, i know, i wish.. it would only work if we could dual boot. that way, we could potentially have wifi aircrack support and all that!
Agreed.. but chroot is better than nothing I guess. You may want to try the "orbot" app along with backtrack. Its great for using the tor network while using bt.

anyone tried interfacing with any wifi adapters yet with either the dock or a USB ATP to USB adapter? it'd be pretty awesome to get monitor mode on this thing...
Inevitble question. What happesn when we get ICS? Will we just have to reroot?
What's the difference in BT5 and the HD2 image I downloaded from the HD2 forums? Are they different versions of Ubuntu?
Oh yeah, and THANKS a ton for the install guide!

Ahh, gotcha. I didn't realize this was a different flavor of linux, not a different version of Ubuntu (guess I should have read the thread title). Cool, going to give it a shot.
Thanks for this. I was looking to put some form of Linux on my tp lol. Just have to wait until I get an sd card now.
it doesn't have to be on your sdcard
sdcard means internal memory
there is a removable category for a removabl sdcard.
just transfer the zip to your normal memory root directory

Yea, bt5 is the security and exploitation flavor of Linux, ubuntu is more of the general purpose version

Can someone try out LibreOffice and report back how smoothly it does/doesn't run? Will definitely root if LibreOffice runs well. Thanks!

How does it run on the TFP ? is it responsive etc?
Can it be used as an everyday function? i'm really interested in this, and cant wait to get start messing about with it.
I've got BT5.zip on my sdcard directory, but I keep getting this error when I use the './install.bat' command:

It was extremely annoying at first when my phone would constantly mount the stupid VZW software install CDROM, so I deleted the CDROM.iso..
but then today when I couldn't find a blank CD to install Ubuntu on another computer, I thought for one sec that I might just be able to rename the installer iso to CDROM.iso and place it in /system/etc/
It didn't work...
Has anybody else ever replaced this with another image and gotten it to show up on the computer when they plugged the phone in? Do you know if I need to make the image into a particular format first?
I was also thinking it could be cool to put adb, fastboot, drivers and a few other important tools on a custom CDROM.iso. Maybe even a damn small linux boot disk?
Nevermind i'm a Retard.
I just needed to capitalize the extension and make it CDROM.ISO

This works? That'd be sweet. No more noobs asking how to get adb and fastboot working !!
Yup it does work but so far I haven't been able to get a computer to boot the Ubuntu CD. But once the computer is booted, it does pop up with the ubuntu installer as if I just inserted the CD.
