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
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 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.
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?
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
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 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
[code]....
Unable to open /dev/sdb I can't read anything from the disk. I tried Winders also with the same failure.
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
[code]......
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.
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 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.
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.
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'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.
I just installed Ubuntu 9.10 and its great. However when I connect to the internet at home it shows that the connection has been established but I still cant connect to the internet. My flatmates are all able to connect. However, I am able to connect from work both wirelessly and through an ethernet cable.
I'm running linux mint 8...(since it's based on ubuntu, I thought thats the place...) I wanted to ask, how can I connect my N97 to the linux... and surf the web with it? 3G and stuff?
Every time I upload files into the web onto my ubuntuone account the ubuntuone folder can't connect and synchronize my data. In the folder when I click connect, it does not work.
I would just like to know how many page hits i am getting and to see where the IP is. How to i go about seeing this on the server ( i dont want to add a page counter or anything all i want is to see a list of IP's times when they made the connection and what they viewed ) Is there a command to see this?
I created a Live CD with Ubuntu 10.4 Desktop, in which everything seems to work except Firefox, or internet connections in general. I've tried several other Linux distros with the same results. The DSL modem is on and working (USB Westell Wirespeed duel connect modem), works with Windows XP (native OS on this computer) but not with this live cd.
Ive been inside the network manager, and have only one connection setup which is DSL and automatically connect. But when it looks for a connection, none is found (the tab on the upper right corner of the desktop with the exclamation mark).
The live cd connects at work, but it's through a server and connected to that via ethernet, so that's a completely different setup.
I've seen countless other instances of connectivity issues, and it all seems to involve hours of testing, command line editing, and other things that more often than not produce no results.
I am trying to run a script before starting to connect to a vpn (when clicking in the network manager applet). I googled: if-down.d if-post-down.d if-pre-up.d if-up.d But couldn't find any good info, only bug reports. And as I understand those will run when an interface (which one?) is upped|etc... I need to run the script BEFORE the vpn starts because it uses the command "host" and if the vpn has already started I cant access internet. The script setup routes for a list of host, so I would need to run another script to remove them after disconnecting the vpn or my normal connection wont work.
I have configured Ubuntu 10.04 to work on a Windows XP network that has 2 other XP desktops (wired to same router). Ubuntu sees the icons for each computer in the "network" tab of "places" and can access the shared files 1 of those desktops, no problem, but trying to access the other one gets the error "Unable to mount location-failed to retrieve share list from server" I have checked the XP computers and can't find what may be different about them.
i think i'm some of the way there to connecting to PostgresSQL- i dont know what it is or what it does but it is required for another program that i want to run. anyway when i run the program i get the error: "unable to connect to this database, please check the configuration". i am not entirely sure what the problem is and this might be a bigger problem than i am capable of dealing with right now as my skills in operating the terminal are not that great. so i have set up a new user and password by the terminal which im pretty sure i have done correctly.
I have 10.10 32 bit and 64 bit live CDs. Using the 32 bit, I can easily connect to my wireless router. However, the 64 bit CD, while recognizing the wireless connection, will not connect. My computer is 64 bit capable (I ran Karmic and Lucid using 64 bit). I have a 802.11 WiFi using the rt2800pci driver. Any ideas on how to get the wireless working for 10.10 64 bit? I would like to install it, just leery of wireless problems.
