    Guide: Mobile Broadband Usb Stick Usage

    It was a suggestion to get the stick working but I think perhaps I didn't explain enough. Some sticks which have a CDrom emulation and all you need to do to "mode switch" them is to eject that CD-ROM device that gets installed. You can even wait for it to appear on the desktop and right click...

    Guide: Mobile Broadband Usb Stick Usage

    I think you're trying to modeswitch a device that actually has an easier solution. As root or by using sudo try issuing the eject command and you might find it auto switches. You may need to specify the /dev device that the cdrom sets up as but eject may just 'work'

    Aufs Doesn't Seem To Work

    You can't just remount / as an aufs I tried to do the same thing. You can probably do it with all the directories under / but not / itself due to it being 'special'

    Bluetooth Tethering Dun Assistance?

    Yeah I found wvdial on arm seems to have a bug and I could find people talking about it but no fix. if you install modem manger you might find you have more luck. I wrote a guide for using a usb mobile stick but installing the modem manager allowed HackModford to tether successfully so maybe...

    Guide: Mobile Broadband Usb Stick Usage

    I can't comment on download speeds much, but I can certainly browse and IM and all the rest of it without any problems. I tend not to be downloading when I'm on the move. Battery life does suffer, just judging by the battery meter estimates it looks like with an E1820 you'll half your battery...

    Guide: Mobile Broadband Usb Stick Usage

    Okay, I got this to work by a much more complex route but over the last few days I've learnt more and more and refined it down to a simpler method . Unfortunately all of this stuff needs root access and it's going onto the NAND so you'll be asked for your password at least once. I'd also say...

    Usb_Modeswitch

    Well I don't know where you found that package but I certainly couldn't find it in the angstrom repo In the end I ripped a copy out of a debian package and used that, it worked a treat but that's when the real work started :) Well today I managed to connect to the Internet using a Huawei E1820...

    Uae4All Kickroms

    Thanks, I had a feeling that might be the case but since the more options menu had settings for 1.3 2.0 3.1 I thought I'd give 2.0 a run out. Problem solved :D

    Mount Pandora On Mac Osx Desktop

    Wow I actually went the other way. I used to use WinSCP and now I just use Filezilla, as long as you remember to specify the port as 22 for SSH it works flawlessly (Well for me anyway) That said they're both excellent pieces of software.

    Ok I Tried The Whole Separate Appdata Dir Thing

    I think pnd and the appdata dir are very decent solution for the type of device we're talking about here. The big problem isn't the system it's knowing what random crap the pnd is going to use as the appdata. Examples angrydd.EvilDragon fheroes2.pickle ioquake3.pickle quake3.pickle...

    Uae4All Kickroms

    I'm trying to use UAE4ALL with kick20.rom but it just crashes back to desktop and there's nothing interesting in the pndrunuae4all.out file. The same kick rom works fine in P-UAE but that seems to run only in a window? I also have a kick13.rom and that works fine. Anyone else had better luck...

    Usb_Modeswitch

    Well I'm hoping someone with more knowledge can help me here, I have a HSPA+ stick Huawei E1820 to be exact and if I plug it into my pandora it sees the storage parts of the stick. Under linux you could at this point use usb_modeswitch to change it to modem state and then start using it. However...

    Clock Problems

    I haven't figured out what exactly causes this but I can reset the clock on my pandora and a few hours later it's slow by a random amount. I set it at 11:33 today and now it's 15:44 but the pandora thinks it's 15:18 :huh: Anyone else had this issue?
