[Q] Howto access Win7 Shares from Gen8 Archos? - Gen8, Gen9, Gen10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hi,
i know most of u guys are "nerds" (like me?!?!) and use linux - but sadly im still on win7 with my main shares
Anyway i did a lot of research now on google and several forums about how 2 access the win7 shares from our archos (mainly from the video and music app)!
Bit I didn't found a damn way without looseing my whole securtity settings -> most solutions are going to disable whole security and allow guest access,...
(Well actualy i got the problem of all others: u type in login + pw and press ok - and u get asked again and again for it)
Anyway some ppl use cifs as far as i read but I even dont get what cifs exactly does (somehow mounting network folders as far as I read - but it seemed to be steady - and does it work from music and video app?)
So any help appreciated
regards
FrEcP

The problem with W7 is that it introduced some new features and encrypts in a different way.
All other windows versions where patched so that they can work.
But as it is a close source thing of MS it takes some time until it gets into samba or ther tools.
Did you read http://forum.archosfans.com/viewtopic.php?f=63&t=45908
and tried http://www.jankamp.com/2010/11/windows-share-manager/ ?

y found those links about deinstalling win live - and using share manager - sry i didnt wrote that.
But share manager rly disables all security as far as i understood - anyway it also didnt work for me somehow.
So seems using an external explorer or perhaps cifs - dunno if that work and how - seems to be the only options
u got a good source on howto use cifs with UD if that works? As far as i understood its "mounted" in a local folder and the n accessible!?!?
EDIT:
searching on my own i think - dont want begging u with things i can find on google
anyway update for http://code.google.com/p/urukdroid/wiki/UrukServices is needed

So you are using Uruk?
And you started the cifs server via UrukConfig?
It is up to UD 1.5RC1 normally off after the start.

yes this is what i did so far - but i didnt edit the config file yet

last i read, its kernel related and cant be supported till the bootloader is cracked which will allow the dev's to load a custom kernel.
Yes they can be complied as kernel modules. The issue you have is not iptables but netfilter being loaded and configured. I've noticed the need as anyone who has installed Titanium backup has. Bin4ry is the kernel commando here.. maybe ask him for a custom kernel and buy him a case of beer

I'd love to see that too, just for Wifi Tethering (barnacle needs it too... :-( )
If you find something let us know, thx.

Barnacle works fine including with WEP as-is without netfilter or iptables. The last couple of Barnacle updates have made it extremely reliable.

Wut??? That would be great...
I only manage to get it to work with https protocol, no http.. Tried with several different ROMs, always the same.
I'm gonna try to see if I can find any info on that.

It's always worked fine for me, except about 2 months ago there were a number of Barnacle builds where WEP didn't work. That's all fixed now.
Here's the settings I use:
- WEP: Enabled (ASCII)
- Custom Wifi Ad-hoc: none
- Skip wpa_supplicant: Yes
- Auto Associate: No
- WAN: rmnet0
- LAN: wlan0
A neat new feature is that you can have "Local Mode" where it doesn't need 3G/HSDPA so you can create your own little adhoc network for file sharing.
I then start SwiFTP and Gladinet (running in background) on my laptop maps the \sdcard\DCIM folder to Z:\Android in Windows Explorer so I can import my photos into Adobe Lightroom.
Or you could map \sdcard\music and sync with MusicBee or another music player that allows copying to network drives.
I quite like Barnacle

Thx for all the info, but i tried with your settings and mine, and i still have the same problem : all works fine in https, but i always get error 403 (permission denied) in http.
Slight difference with your settings : Barnacle shows an error message : NAT Restart : permission denied.
I'm starting to think it's my provider (SFR) that blocks this... possible?
EDIT : Think i'l open a new thread in the appropriate section if I can't find anything. Thanks for helping.

[Q] Working Ad-Hoc for Gingerbread 2.3.4 - is it possible that nobody can solve it?!

Dear friends,
I have searched tens of forums and googled requested for a days,
but I didn't have chance that find any answer
And it seems that nobody speak so much about that problem here,
people are in race for newer and newer firmwares,
is it possible that nobody can't find the way to solve that problem and succeed to modify wpa_supplicant to work on new Gingerbread 2.3.4?
I can't belive that I have 500€ phone witout possibility to use ad-hoc WiFi at my home
Download this file - http://www.mediafire.com/?ap3alfyf2asu1ca
Disable the wifi...Copy-paste the file in system/bin using root explorer... reboot the phone...done, your phone running KG1 can connect to ad-hoc networks
oops.. i just tried on KG1. Didn't connect to an adhoc network setup with WEP.
I even set the properties of the file like:-
owner: Root Group: shell along with proper file permissions.
Still no working.
Huh, god knows, maybe it depends of type of installed ROM.
Galaxy S2, Lightning ROM 2.2, rooted, exchanged downloaded wpa-supplicant with original without changing any owner properties using Root Explorer and Mount R/W and R/O option,
and - it works, after reboot, sure.
I heard that gingerbread 2.3.x does not support ad-hoc wifi but froyo 2.2.x supports it!!!!
There is a file in the sticky thread. wtf it works fine. Im using it on M250S - 2.3.4
delete the file first ,than paste the new file back ,reboot
guys, is there any conclusion from this thread? i'm getting desperate too

Working on stock KG3, Litening(all versions),Villain(all versions), others i didn't test...
I tested using Bzeek wifi hotspot creator on windows Vista, if you can't connect to WEP, try Bzeek, its open network but password is needed to use it
I have the LG Optimus 3D and I wanted to use my old WinMo phone as an ad-hoc server. I searched a lot and finally found the solution:
First of all you need a rooted device.
Go to Market and install "ZT-180 Adhoc Switcher". Run this program everytime you want to connect to ad-hoc.
The device acting as server needs to have its SSID to "AndroidTether" and require no password.
Don't forget to revert back to "infrastructure" mode after ending your session otherwise you won't be able to connect to normal hotspots.
There is no guarantee that this will work on all devices. Just try and see...

[Q] ZTE v9 Light (Base TAB) newbie

Hey Folks,as u read: I am totally new to android.
But here are some facts about me I'll tell you just to say sorry for dumbp questions right at the beginning.
I have a good base of Linux knowlege and i also always was modding my phones. If it was my Motorola Razr v3i or my Rhodium Windows 6.5.
Most important: I REALLY dont want others to make MY work. Dont missunderstand me: Some People just dont have the ability to make that on their own and i think, they needed to be helped too, but not me. I want to learn it and i CAN learn it.
But sorry if I post a question in the wrong Forum or ask questions wich have been answerted pretty often. My Problem ist not to read or speak english: It is to imagine the words I need to use for google and stuff to find my answeres. So, some hints, tips or links to Howtos or stuff woud help me alot.
Burt here the bunde of my most important questions:
It all started with Adobe Flash. I guess my Pad has a arm6 or 7 CPU... it has 600mhz and i found a version for that here on xda- i installed it and its working so far for the adobe flv player and swf files but not as an plugin 4 the reguar browser or dolphin hd. any suggestions?
I also wanted to download teamspeak 3. it seems, there i have the same problem. it tells me, my device is incomatible at the market. So is there a way to get it anywhere else and my to recompile it and patch it to work?
next: i tried to root my device using androot and also z4root. it goes through the process without errors and everything seems to be fine but sshdroid tells me, root is disabled. the access to some locations of the phone still is denied and so i cant install nandroid for backups and before i will go on, i REALLY shoud install an backup solution, right folks?
Well- for the first, thats it. if i know that i guess, the rest is more easy to find out on myself as it is right noe.
Again: You dont need to make my work. sorry and thanks at once && greetings from ?good? ol' germany. Alex
well- one thing i also coud need some help... i was searching arround how 2 set my phone for data2ext4 ... but if i wont get running my phone rooted, i can forget about that, cant I? my card already hav an 4GB ext4 partition beside a 12GB FAT partition

UD1..6RC2:
files are downloaded to /mnt/storage/download - if u downlaod a file with tabled - then copie to the update dir.
Otherwise make sure u use the windows disconnection function before remove the device to prevent corruption.
Google mail:
not sure if u mean that - but try:
long hold (like adding a widget) -> shortcuts -> email (or gmail,.. however it's named) -> select the account (will add a shortcut to the account directly)
Google music:
which version are u trying to use? some 3.x version worked fine - while I never got any 4.x version runnig propper on froyo - while runns fine on my gingerbread cellphone
PLEASE POST THIS IS GENERAL FORUM NEXT TIME AS ITS NOT DEVELOPMENT RELATED - Thank you
thanks for the help and sorry for posting in the wrong forum
sorted out the update
but i dont have gmail or email shortcut option ( i do have it when trying to replace an item in launcher bottom menu)
cheers
michel
hmmm - only thing i can think of is trying reinstall gapps - e.g. using arctolls
just bricked my 101 so i can't look it up atm but the method described above works on my phone wiht launcher pro...
perhaps anyone else knows it better then me ?
good luck
will fix my device
