Even More Froyo

I don't recall your bolded quote being in the original OP, and P3 sort of had to mention he was annoyed before some changes were made (like P3 being added to the filename). But, they were made quickly, so that's what matters.

Let me say this. P3 and bbcrackman and the staff at MDW are awesome. I posted from the office and meant no disrespect to him. I have chatted with him and corrected my post. Once again sorry about the confusion

Honestly, I'm seeing no difference. The changelog to me is just looking like the number. I might by bypassing small tweaks, but I'm headed back to BB v0.3 until Pete updates. Not anything really worth seeing here.

Ok thanks for the info, saved me some time

Okay, I am having issues with installing busybox. With these instructions.

"To install busybox use Android Terminal or ADB Shell

TYPE:
Code:
sumount -o remount,rw -t yaffs2 /dev/block/mtdblock4 /system/xbinbusybox --install /system/xbin/mount -o remount,r -t yaffs2 /dev/block/mtdblock4 /system
You have now installed busybox"

I am trying to use Better Terminal emulator, and when I type in the first line and press enter I get...

/data/data/com.magicandroidapps.bettertermpro/bin/sh: sumount: not found

sumount -o remount,rw -t yaffs2 /dev/block/mtdblock4 /system/xbinbusybox --install /system/xbin/mount -o remount,r -t yaffs2 /dev/block/mtdblock4 /system
You have now installed busybox

I feel like an idiot for asking but how do we type this into the terminal? I did it with BB for 2.1 to get busy box but it was like 2 lines of code-- Do we type it in all at once? Sorry!

Well after running this for a bit I can say that I don't see much of a difference in it. You still cannot get flash from the market and apps are still missing from the market like LogMeIn. I think I'm going to go back to my rooted 2.1 till the official vzw release happens.

Can someone please explain to me why I want or need busybox?

Have not known of you to not give credit. You tried to help us out by putting the post out real quick while at work. people should know it was not meant to give cred to yourself. We know that P3 (heck it says it when you load up the file through recovery) and MDW are the one who worked hard on this. Good job to them and thanks Miami for posting it. Lets end the conversation at that. No need to let it continue, mistake made in a rush, issue fixed.

in a nutshell a lot of apps that you will be using (since you are rooted) rely on it being installed.

HAHAHA thanks P3Droid and Miami for getting this out to us for FREE!! Its developers like you that make Android the best Operating System around Hands Down!

Don't think he is worried about how to do it. Think he wants to know "why" you need it

(Version 2.1-update1 Kernel 2.6.29.) Is the jump to the newest Froyo possible from this platform without dowloading the first gen. Froyo first?

/data/data/com.magicandroidapps.bettertermpro/bin/sh: sumount: not found

you need a space in between "su" and "mount".

please link the directions you're using
