As I haven’t posted here for nearly a month, I will now quote an email I got by a guy I contacted. All copyrights go to him, I haven’t had time to test his explanations, but maybe it helps somebody of you that want their A910 to connect to every wireless network.
I’ll try to make some explainations. We can discuss together in order to
improve the text and make a correct howto we can put on the web…
(contains and form (I’m an old vi dinosaur from 1994 ;) ) + the english,
as it’s not my mother language…)
4 parts: telnetd, swap, wifi and mackconnectivitypack/fake_dsm1) Telnetd/login
Motorola didn’t install any telnetd nor login. (thanks, Moto :-)
Mount your phone as an usb mass storage, then edit
[path]/.system/javaCardRegistry
and set lines as follow (you can install a dummy java application then
adapt the values (IMEI, AppID,…) JavaId must be -1.

A780-AddOns.tgz is also very usefull for login and many more

(install without diska

can activate (hear a sound).you can connect your linux box (A910 usb in modem mode)

to /ezxlocal (11Mb internal A910 storage) so telnetd is no more
dependant of the removable microSD.2) swapspace
I also set a swap space ( no more
available on motorolafan)
in /mmc/mmca1/.system/java/CardRegistry:

$my_alert -playvol 1 -playfile $my_mid13) Wifi
The WIFI connection tool /usr/SYSqtapp/wsp/wlanapp fails everytime (UMA
stuff? Orange or BT limitation? Grrr…) so the solution is to kill the
process when we are connected and continue with normal dhcp request:
see the awful script setwifidhcp.lin:
#!/bin/sh
/etc/init.d/ezxenvr.sh
export PATH=$PATH:/mmc/mmca1/.system/bin:/mmc/mmca1/.system/sbin
export
LD_LIBRARY_PATH=$LD_LIBRARY_PATH:$QTDIR/lib:/lib:/usr/lib:/usr/lib/ezx/lib:/mmc/mmca1/.system/lib
export EZX_RES_FONT_PATH=/usr/lib/ezx/lib/fonts
/usr/SYSqtapp/wsp/wlanapp >/ezxlocal/wlanapp.log 2>&1 &
pid=`find /proc/ -name exe -ls 2> /dev/null|grep wlanapp|cut -d/ -f3`
connected=0
while [ ${connected} -eq 0 ]; do
sleep 2
connected=`grep “Successfully connected to AP”
/ezxlocal/wlanapp.log |wc -l`
done
kill $pid
kill `cat /ram/tmp/dhcpcd-eth0.pid`
rm /ram/tmp/dhcpcd-eth0.pid
dhcpcd eth0
my_alert=’/usr/SYSqtapp/phone/alertprocess’
my_mid1=’/ezxlocal/sbin/done.mid’
$my_alert -playvol 1 -playfile $my_mid1Now, the problem is the setting of the dnsproxy process:
cat /etc/dnsproxy.conf
include /ram/tmp/dsmdns.conf
include /ram/tmp/pppdns.confEven when I fix a proper value into /ram/tmp/dsmdns.conf, It’s not taken
into account.
By mounting a writable /etc, I can set a working /etc/resolv.conf
http://www.courville.org/mediawiki/index.php/EZX#Make_.2Fetc_editable_.26_change_root_passwd_.28more_secure_telnet.295) mackconnectivitypack/fake_dsm
When the wifi link is ok (see iwconfig eth0) I can access internet with
native application
(ping, telnet,…) but not with web browser, nor native opera nor java
opera-mini.
The solution would be to set a fake_dsm route but I did’nt succeed…
I used the dsm_spy from clovisKKK to adapt the fake_dsm code, as
suggested in the thread
http://www.motorolafans.com/forums/viewtopic.php?t=9096&postdays=0&postorder=asc&start=0B******
As you can easily see, there is still a lot of work to do, and I have to say, I’d prefer to modify the firmware and flash it into the device to get things working without lots of dirty hacks not everybody is able to perform.
