I have an old Motorola RAZR that is starting to give up the ghost. I want to upload the phonebook to my computer as easily as possible, in a form that it could then be downloaded to another phone. I have looked at moto4lin and kmobiletools - I didn't actually try them, because the writeups I found seemed always to have some problems, and nothing seemed very Fedora friendly.
If I have to go with those tools, I will, but I don't want to sync the phonebook with what is on my computer or anything, I just want to copy the data somewhere temporarily and then copy it back to another phone. And no, there is too much for the SIM card. I suppose I could do it with the SIM card in several iterations, but that seems awfully kludgy. Is there a mount point or something where I can find the thing after I plug it into a USB port on my computer? I don't have a bluetooth device for my computer.
All I want to do is transfer my pictures from my Motorola V3 RAZR to the Ubuntu 10.04 PC. Searching, I installed KMobileTools 0.4.3.3 from the "Ubuntu Software Center" as a Ubuntu 10.04 replacement for the Windows "Motorola Phone Tools". But when I attach my fully charged Motorola RAZR V3 to the Ubuntu 10.04 PC with a USB cable, I can't transfer my pictures from the phone to the PC using KMobileTools.
In fact, there doesn't even appear to be a MENU for transferring pictures from the Motorola RAZR V3 to the Ubuntu 10.04 PC in the KMobileTools application. What would you suggest for transferring pictures from the Motorola RAZR to the Ubuntu 10.04 Lucid PC?
Right now I am struggling to fix my Motorola RAZR V3 phone (it is just one year old). The problem is that the internal speakers (the regular ones, used to listen to the caller) are apparently set to a quite low volume and I can not hear almost anything. Researching similar cases I learned about the existence of several software tools designed to hack the phone and raise the volume on the aforementioned speakers; unfortunately those tools are Windows-only.
I also stumbled into a Linux program (moto4linux) which apparently would allow me to do the same thing, unfortunately I've been unable to connect to my phone using that program. Before I go any further in my attempts to force moto4linux to connect to my phone, could anyone please confirm that such program is actually able to hack the phone's speakers the way I want to? Or is it merely for file & contacts synchronizing?
I am trying to find out the best way to sync my address book from my motorola razr v8, and eventually my new nexus one phone, to Evolution in fedora 12. I don't use bluetooth, just a simple usb connection.
I am having a problem with my el-cheap-o Net 10 phone. There is not time left on the phone but I can still use it as a camera. Now I want to download the pictures to my laptop. When I plug it into a USB port, I get these messages:Nov 13 13:13:29 acer64 kernel: usb 6-1: new full speed USB device using uhci_hcd and address 11
Nov 13 13:13:29 acer64 kernel: usb 6-1: New USB device found, idVendor=22b8, idProduct=4080 Nov 13 13:13:29 acer64 kernel: usb 6-1: New USB device strings: Mfr=1, Product=2, SerialNumber=0

Unable to open /dev/sdb I can't read anything from the disk. I tried Winders also with the same failure.
When I connect my Motorola Xoom Tablet (Android 3.0) to my PC (Fedora 15) via Mini-USB cable, the Fedora system doesn't recognize the tablet as a external drive.Connecting my phone Nexus S (Android 2.3) the same way, it will be recognized and mounted.
I can't get my Motorola Xoom to 'mount' on Ubuntu 10.10
The Motorola Xoom has a USB connection that uses MTP (Media Transfer Protocol) and not MSC (Mass Storage Class). This allows file-level access as opposed to the whole media block. My Droid X mounts fine but it uses MSC.
I have loaded the MTP tools:sudo apt-get install mtp-toolsand I have installed both Qlix and gPodder since these both use MTP.
The Xoom remains unrecognized. So instead of file-level access I have NO-level access.
Recently I acquired a Motorola Xoom very satisfied with it. However I tried to connect my Xoom by USB, and sure enough it would not mount. So, I did some research and came across this web site [URL] Followed all the steps, and finally saw that my Xoom was mounted on my desktop. However it would not open, and it outputs the following message; Could not display "/media/xoom". The file is of an unknown type
I know they are old, but I will probably have my v3m for a while. I would like to connect to it to transfer ring tones, pictures, and contacts, etc. moto4lin installed and runs fine. I have assigned the device id's and device file name. I get a message when I plug and unplug the phone so I know I have the correct addressability. When I press the connect/disconnect button, I get
Code:
[info] Phone is unpluged. Please connect it [info] Phone pluged as P2K Try to connect

Before someone jumps on me for running as root, there are posts all over the internet that indicates that root is required.
I am running Debian 6.0.1a on a Gateway SX-2841 (64-bit) and I would like to set up the Motorola SBV5220 modem using USB because the Ethernet port is used for a LAN (not on Internet). I am trying to follow the Cable Modem HOWTO. /var/log/messages lists CONFIG_USB_NET_CDCETHER=m, not exactly as shown in the HOWTO. lsmod does not list anything like either CDCEther or usbnet. I am hesitant to try running modprobe until somebody says this is the right thing to do.
using Ubuntu and want to completely switch to it from Windows, but I have an phone motorola a1200 that synchronizes well using windows, but can't find a way to do it in Ubuntu using the usb with evolution
I recently got a Xoom and have been loving it. However, I can't get USB file transfer to work. Apparently the devices is connected by mtp and I've got mtp-tools to use from the command line, but they're not able to mount the device or connect to it in any other way, although they recognize it. I've even fiddled around a bit in /etc/udev/rules.d according to the instructions in this thread: [URL]
Didn't do a thing, sadly, although I wasn't able to get gnomad to work - it kept on claiming it was missing dependencies, which it wasn't, as far as I could tell. I've got Ubuntu running on another computer, though, and installed gnomad on that. Also no dice, although I hadn't changed /etc/udev/rules.d on that computer.
Linux for starters, have used this link to help set up the phones tethering using wired cable the computer is old with no wireless and it is integrated into the motherboard so dont flame about spending 20 bucks on a wireless card please. Now, we can start tunneling betwwen your computer and your phone. Change directory to the tools subdirectory of the extracted Android SDK directory. Issue the command ./adb forward tcp:8080 tcp:8080... everything went smooth until here ... there doesnt appear to be a filenamed ./adb so i cant move on and dont know where to go from here.
it is worth noting i am a noob to android sdk and i think i need to set somemore up to get it to work right you download a starter package and the rest you reach out and grab with the starter package although i dont know where tostart there either.
I recently bought a couple of Gateway SX-2841 boxes, Intel EM64T CPUs, lots of memory, big HDs. One has Ubuntu 10.10 Gnome and one has Debian 6.0.1a. So far, so good. I'm still working on USB hookup to a Motorola modem, but the LAN works fine. The machines did have problems running Firefox with the "pre-installed" Win7 Home edition OS. But then, I never intended to keep the MS system, anyway.
I have a motorola bmc 9012 dvr and am attempting to connect an external hard drive to it via usb. when i plug in the external hd the dvr recognizes it and wants to format the hd. i let it format the hd but now i can not view the hd from my windows machine. anyone have an idea of what type of file system the dvr formatted the hd with?
I want to tether my Milestone phone with my Lucid 10.04. I did a search regarding the software needed on the PC side to support this but unfortunately I found none. What all I got is a S/W named Pdanet to be used with windows only.
The Motorola mounts in 10.04 but I can't tell the size of the available disc space so don't know if it's some internal memory or the 16 GB microSD card. It shows some files and a setup.exe so I suspect it's not the card and don't want to screw anything up.
I installed ubuntu 10.04 in my desktop, was working fine. connecting to the internet through linksys router. now my internet is not working, because i removed the linksys router and connected directly from the internet provider modem, Motorola sbv5222 broadband modem. Now my internet is not working.
I'm having the issue that I cannot conenct to the wlan of my Motorola Milestone/Droid with Android 2.2 and the 3G Hotspot service started. When I want to connect, I have to type the WPA2 passhrase in, I do that correctly and then the system tries to conenct. This failed and then I have to type the passphrase again.It's a Samsung N130 Netbook with Ubuntu 11.04 installed.
Have no idea what I am doing operating a server. Our programmer got a new job and I am the one who has to take it over. Everything was fine til yesterday. You see I made a control panel to easier update the site www(dot)discoverysound(dot)com
but yesterday when I went to update the site I got an error called fopen. I thought I fixed it (and boy did I ever) but now I cannot get to my site because it says Forbidden You don't have permission to access / on this server. Apache/2.0.47 (Unix) mod_ssl/2.0.47 OpenSSL/0.9.7a DAV/2 PHP/4.3.3RC4-dev Server at www(dot)discoverysound(dot)comPort 80.
I am using F10 desktop edition, all the computers using windows are able to access the shared folders over lan except me using F10. I have tried many things with smb but still unable to connect.I am new to linux so i dont khow much of its technicalities.kindly suggest how can i be able to access the shared documents ..
Linux OS : Fedora 10 (No graphical mode)Windows OS : XP and Windows Server NT...I am able to access from my windows to linux using following step//fedora10 ip username of admin and password...I am able to view the admin and shared printer of fedora 10.When i try to enter in the admin folder i am not able to access it. It is giving error "Access is denied".
I've lasted a lot longer than usual before resorting to asking around, but I've finally gone delightfully mad. I've been trying to access shares based on Windows 7 Ultimate with limited user access on said shares. I've managed to get into my XP machine, another mate's Vista machine and various Linux boxes with no issues, but that's only for shares that are accessible by everyone. The moment I try to get into a share that requires user credentials, I get "Error returning browse list: NT_STATUS_ACCESS_DENIED".If I try to access restricted shares (be it machine or folder) through Nautilus, I will get a user logon prompt, but it fails. Using smbclient results in just as little success, and now I'm munching through O'Reiley's Samba manual from '99, after realising that I need to basically learn Samba in its entirety to have a hope in hell at getting this to work. The trouble is though, every HOWTO and relevant forum post I get my hands on all seem to concentrate more on the server side of things, and usually servering from a linux box, not the other way around as I'm trying to.
The above Windows 7 machine won't even allow me to view its share contents, whereas the XP machine previously will allow me to browse, but won't allow me to access folders with restricted access. I'm pretty sure there aren't any major issues with the way the Windows 7 machine is setup, as it can be accessed with logon from my Xbox, Ubuntu machine, XP and Vista, with only Fedora having problems getting in as it constantly fails logon. What I'm trying to establish is, if Ubuntu can get in, is there something in my Fedora samba config I'm missing that's preventing me access? My thanks in advance to those of you who've been able to put up with me rambling.
How does one access a Virtual Box installed Fedora system? I'd like to be able to ssh into this system (locally) but I've no idea how to do this. There is an ip address of 10.0.2.15. Ping doesn't work (ping 10.0.2.15). Should I just go ahead and assign a 192. address to this box before I go any further? It would seem that at this point the system isn't actually a part of my local network and I don't imagine it would be unless it has a 192 address.
i recently did some changes to my hard disk partitonand now linux is in hd0,6when i booted my pc,i got the grub commmand line interfaceso,I think that i need to edit grub.conf in fedora 14then at cmd i did this:
grub> root (hd0,6) grub> kernel (hd0,6)/vmlinuz file not found
I have a Pentium 3 system running Fedora 10 (but will be upgraded to 11 this weekend) acting as the router for my 10.x.x.x network to my DSL modem using iptables for a couple of windows computers in my house. the network is all copper ethernet, but my girlfriend's notebook has wireless on it. I put a Linksys wireless PCI card into the fedora server, and it works with b43-fwcutter-011 and lsmod shows b43 loaded. iwconfig lists wlan0. anyway, what I need to know is if anyone has any instructions on how to make the server also be a wireless access point w/ WPA2 encryption for my girlfriend's notebook so that she doesn't have to use her ethernet cable anymore. I've done some google searching and haven't came across anything that was of much help.I ran system-config-network but it didn't seem to have a section on setting up wlan0 to be an access point.
I am a Linux newbie, and this is my third attempt in 5 years to become a regular user, and drop microsoft once and for all. Unfortunately, I am having difficulties. Normally it's a good way to learn, but I've been spinning my wheels for 4 days on one problem. It's compounded by the fact that I'm just learning even basic commands. So, please be patient.I have 3 machines.
1)tabletop with Fedora 13, Name: Trout, wired network connection 2)tabletop with winxp, name: bdc, wired network connection 3)laptop with winxp, name: bclaptop, wireless network connection
From Trout, I can access share folder named 'share' on bclaptop. I can also access 'shareddocs' on bdc.From both Xp machines I can access the other xp machines shared folders, but cannot access the shares on Trout, these shares names are 'share' and 'lshare'. On Trout GUI file browser if I go to 'Network' find 'Trout' (looking at itself on the network) I get "Unable to mount location: failed to mount windows share".
I can ping any other machine from any machine using either it's name or IP address. The windows machines do see Trout. The Linux shares can be seen in XP's 'My Network Places'.The network is on a 2-wire router/modem. The original windows network name (workgroup?) is 'Timber'. The workgroup created by Samba is 'mygroup'. They appear to be different workgroups, and Trout is in 'mygroup', and xp machines are in 'Timber'. I don't understand this part enough to know if this is significant.I "believe" I have the permissions wide open for 'lshare', but not 100% certain on any of this (newbie), so ask anything, please. I fumbled through Samba trying first to do it with text editor, then ended up with GUI Samba Editor. Looks to me like services smbd and nmbd are running. The Samba Editor made a rather large smb.conf file, so I'll just put what I think is relevant
