regarding UBUNTU INSTALL ON EVO 3d :http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1197377
So ubuntu worked for me on my 3d yesteday, but i woke up this morning, and it doesn't seem to be working.
gives me error
vnc connection failed!
/127.0.0.1:5901 - Connection refused.
I'm not sure why it would do this this morning, if it worked fine last night.
tried steps from after putting ubuntu on the sdcard again, but that didn't seem to do anything
if nothing else works, could someone walk me through a re-install of ubuntu?
or at least how to uninstall it, so i could re-install it via the same instructions?
Try upping the port number by one

I actually changed it to 5902 yesterday, and it worked, but i forgot to update/delete this thread
Do you know why this happened? why would it work on port 5901 at first, then change to port 5902? was it something i did?

Has anyone figured out how to get the droid eris to work with app inventor? From what I've heard everyone's having a lot of trouble with it. I'm on a mac, btw, and I've been mounting the phone as a disk drive with no success.
I just sent my request for an invite yesterday, so obviously have not heard back yet. I don't think there are many that have gotten theirs yet either... Just for fun, I did install the appinventor-extras and it did recognize my phone, so I hope that's a good start. Running Windows 7 32bit.
Do you have a Droid Eris as well? And yah, I think it has something to do with running it on a mac because it isn't compatible with HTC Sync which contains most of the drivers I need.
Have an Eris but do not have Sync set up. Already had adb installed so probably just used the the ones that were already added in.
When I get my invite I will get it to work with the Droid Eris. Btw, if you're on a mac, ubuntu works really well dual booted, if thats your thing.
Does anyone know the extent of apps that you can make with this thing? Like, how complicated are we going to be able to get? I'd love to make a mashup of my favorite home replacements...

Yah, it's surprisingly in depth actually. So far, I've noticed there's a function which can force a text, an "activity starter" (which allows you to open apps on the phone), and basic textbox and image components, to name a few.
just got my invite about an hour and a half ago and I still cant get my phone to connect to app inventor... I tried using the custom .inf and that didnt work. it wouldnt even recognize it. i am going to use the emulator for now.
if anyone finds a working driver please upload it.
I have a question to anyone who has access to app inventor. Does anyone else's phone reboot when loading an app onto it? Also in google chrome every time I open the blocks editor it makes me download a new jar file.
AcidRoot, It's normal to download the file everytime. And I don't have problems with my Eris rebooting, but mine doesn't work with AppInventor (I was invited).
What's up guys. I have been a flash junkie for the past several weeks.. Flashing Axura, Team Whiskey's roms and everybody else's in between. I bricked my vibrant this past Sunday and needed to Odin back to stock because I could not get into recovery. So I proceeded to open Odin and hook up my phone when I get a message on my PC that my device wasn't recognized. So I went through the process of uninstalling and reinstalling drivers... I had no luck. So I got frustrated and went to a friends house and tried it. WTF? IT WORKS. He also has win7. So after a fresh Odin and back to an unrooted 2.2 I figured I could connect to my computer.... ( ha)... no luck again. So I backed up everything and installed win7 again. Tried it after that and still saying that the device is unrecognized. I know its probably something simple I'm overlooking but if anybody can help it would be greatly appreciated...

I have no problem with W7. It's possible your USB port is taking a dump. Do other USB devices work? Did you try another USB port?
Yep..... the only thing I have hooked up is a printer.... also I have tried all the ports. They all start to download the driver then it stops and the little notification bubble pops up and tells me that my device has stop working.

Try uninstalling the drivers you've at the moment, plug your vibrant and wait for the W7 drivers to install. Windows may have downloaded the drivers from the internet when you first plugged in your vibrant then you installed the drivers on here and **** got confused so if the w7 drivers work and your vibrant is recognized then all's good. Elsewhere, uninstall the drivers and install the xda ones but his time make sure you assign them manually too. (update driver>don't search for driver>let me assign the driver)

This is good start, Also try disabling your virus protection, sometimes it goes wonky and decides to block some of the usb hook up like a camera or phone, this has happened to me in the past.
Win 7 is very stable but on thing as a recommendation if you do not have you might think about getting win pro 64bit, is the most stable I have found...... just an after thought......... hope you get this resolved.
Thanks..... Will definitely try that when I make it home.

^ Then how did it work at your friends?
Also, I have found that if I have my webcam hooked up ODIN will not recognize my phone. REALLY annoying, especially when I try and make video tutorials for you guys.
Anyone know how to fix that?
Ok, here's the deal...
When I had my OG Evo, and my old WinXP desktop, using ADB was no problem.
Now, with my Win7 lappy, I can't get anything going! When I put my E3D into recovery mode, ADB installed fine (at least, i was under the impression that it did) but I cannot access any commands. Now, when i reboot my phone, it's showing in DM as needing drivers... Is that why I can't make anything happen, or is it something to do with 7?
Oh, and where can I find the drivers for the E3D so i can make sure I've got everything installed correctly? I have the SDK installed with all the latest updates, just fyi.

You need to install Android ASK, and set it up. Then install HTC sync, you can Google both and find good instructions. You'll also need to install Java SDE.
HTC dropped the ball on us 3D users, TeamWin picks it up, and throws HTC out at home base!! Yaaaahhhhh.
Thanks sniper - is there anything I need to know after that? It should work like it's supposed to?
I had PDANet installed on my netbook and it was working fine. The other day when i tried to use it, I received a message that the driver was not correct. Decided to delete the program and install the latest version, 3.50. It installed on the phone without a problem. Tried installing it on my netbook several times and every time I received the error message "Installer failed to open device". My netbook has 32bit Windows 7 and I was using the 32bit installer.
Gave up on the netbook and utilized the 64bit installer with my 64bit Windows 7 on my laptop. Installed without any problem.
Sent PDANet tech support an email; however, they have been less than useless.
Has anybody else received this error message? If so, were you able to resolve the problem?
Any help will be much appreciated.
In before Red5 shuts it down! (This really isn't related to our phone bro)

OMG! It's an app I am trying to use on my AT&T SGS2 and the computer side of the app will not install. How in hell does that not relate to "our" phone. Trolls just want to troll.
No no what I mean is there are a ton of apps out there. I'm not gonna post about it here and ask this community to solve a problem related to installing software on my computer. Now if it were related to installation problems on the phone I could see that being posted here
I would suggest contacting the developer of pdanet? Or posting in a forum related to pdanet?

Alright guys/gals, I'm sorry to make this thread, but I've been messing with this for days and just can't get it. I'm hoping someone with XP 32bit may know the answer. Or maybe someones google-fu is better than mine.
So, here it is:
I FINALLY installed the sdk a few weeks ago.
When I plug my Evo LTE in, and type adb devices, the window shows my device. I can adb reboot bootloader and that works. Then switch device to fastboot via bootloader. But when I try to do a fastboot command (fastboot reboot) it hangs on 'waiting for device'.
Apparently it's a driver issue, I assume. But I just can't figure out what exactly I need. Or maybe a different fastboot.exe in my sdk?
Using win XP sp3 32 bit. Anyone else?
Also, I can't get my PC to see my evos internal storage. I've tried uninstalling HTC sync (but actually it still shows in manage programs) I've tried installing the 32bit drivers in the zedomax root thread. Numerous reboots. I've installed easytether from market and used it (I've seen some say the drivers from that help with various android driver issues). Nothing will get my (crappy, low rent, PC) to see my new Evo. Sees my old Evo just fine, always has. But I know USB/MS is different from MTP.
I'm not a total noob. I rooted my Evo on launch day 2010 and have flashed and modded ever since. But when it comes to PCs and drivers etc, I really am a total noob.
So, if ANYBODY has any advice or links to what I need, I'd be forever indebted.
Much thanks to any response (except lmgtfy lol).
Edit:
My PC doesn't have web connection (I really just use it for storage and android stuff. Also, when I check in device manager, it doesn't show Android 1.0, as some tuts suggest, it shows my HTC.
Also, when i plug into a win7 PC with a web connection, it grabs drivers and recognizes my storage with no problem (if that helps). Thanks

TLCR is the verdict from what I can see. ESFU.
Look at my thanks, it's pretty obvious I've helped lots of people. But I am stumped on this. Please, anyone with XP 32 bit, and my fastboot just hangs on 'waiting for device '
If anyone on win XP 32 bit knows what I'm talking about, please advise
Much thanks. F:ck, at this point I'd pay somebody who can help.

I ran into this when I was rooting my gnex. Where it failed to install the android 1.0 drivers don't know if this is device specific but try this video http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9njewnlumKg&feature=youtube_gdata_player

haha thanks man. Total irony, I set my sdk up using QBkings videos and files cuz i was following galaxy nexus stuff cuz I got one for my mom for mothers day. . Still can't get it. Thanks though.
From what I've seen, most times when drivers are issue, device manager shows android 1.0. Mine doesn't say that. Mine shows MyHtc, and says all drivers are good.
Adb works. Fastboot no-worky.
If anyone else has struggled with XP, I'd love to hear it.
.much thanks.

Try updating or installing HTC sync, that fixed my issue with drivers. I tried to install manually and had issues.
FWIW I was on Windows 7.

I have the same issue using Win7 with the updated drivers used for Root. I have the SDK downloaded and all files that were specified installed to c:\Android. You can see my screen copy in the other HTCDev failed thread. I am stuck in the same boat. Hoping someone can help us with this. As some are getting it and others are not.

Well try uninstalling all phone drivers. Reboot and just hook the phone up and see what happens. Also could be the fault of the of the cable or you need to try a different USB port. And man WinXP 32? Somebody needs to update/ get a new PC . I'm kidding, I was stuck with two of em on XP, just recently got a new laptop with W7. If that doesn't work you could try setting up a Linux VM and see if fasfboot will work through there... but that a like last resort and only if you know what your doing on Linux or can google-fu quite well.

Would be great if one of the all knowing ones could make a script to do this. That includes the needed files and ish. Put this @ the root of C: and click the script that way if you do what your told you can narrow down what is wrong.

Here is the fix. The problem is the android 1.0 drivers. To fix install the PDA net desktop client. When you run it it will ask if you want to replace the drivers. Do this. Go to device manager and look for android 1.0 with the yellow exclamation point. Hit update drivers and browse to (x86/PdaNet for Android/usbwin (windows 7 the location will be different depending on your machine) you will see a security warning install anyway.Complete the installation and this should solve the issue.
Also as a note you may have to toggle signed drivers especially on Windows 8.

Thanks. But I dont show the Android 1.0 drivers with exclamation mark as other have. My drivers just show My HTC ≥my HTC and say they're working properly.
I did install easytether and had read installing it and it's drivers help. But not so far. Haven't tried PDAnet. Will try. Maybe it uses different drivers than easytether?

Finally. I got fastboot working. But just through dumb luck. I uninstalled everything HTC I could find and then tried 12billion different ways to update the 2 drivers I'd downloaded. I finally got the android 1.0 in device manager then tried every driver I could find.
Fastboot works now. But NOTHING I did got XP to see my device as a storage MTP :banghead: dammit, I NEED to be able to get to my sh1t.

Same, same, did you already unlock the bootloader?
Sent from my EVO using XDA
Nope. Haven't unlocked bootloader yet. It's gonna be tricky, too, I think. As you need a web connection. My XP with SDK and adb/fastboot doesn't have web.
But the PC i have access to with web DOESNT have the sdk set up (which it sounds like you need to accomplish the htcdev unlock).
I wish I could help and tell people how I finally got fastboot to work, but it was countless driver uninstalls and reinstalls and reboots (phone and PC), trips to bootloader. (While in bootloader, I saw different drivers in device manager than I saw while booted,...and I think this was a key clue for me. This is where I finally saw the Android 1.0 driver to update. Updated manually thru browsing files, and used the drivers from the root thread.
Also the usb-windows drivers from qbking77. Still not getting any USB storage action gggrrrrrrrr :banghead:
sent from my Evo LTE, usually.
Since uninstalling HTC stuff fixed it, I wonder if disabling HTC Sync would have done it as well. I know it messes with ADB, so I'm wondering if it messes with Fastboot as well. Just a thought. Good job working through it though.
Yeah, I believe so. Also, I just remembered, when I was doing a driver update (turns out there's multiple ways to update drivers with the same result) in a little window before browsing for the driver, it showed my HTC 1.0.XX and my HTC 2.0.1XX and I believe I highlighted the my HTC 2.0.1XX then clucked "have disk".
I'll try to get a screenshot in a minute, if I can.
In the meantime, this weird headset looking icon (or hearing aid) showed up in my notification bar yesterday and I CANNOT figure out what the hell it is. I've been all through settings and just am stumped and feeling really stupid. Anyone know what this is?
