Q:how do I share my G1 (T-mobile) connection tether wifi
A: aNetShare or Wireless Tether for Root

Q: my GPS not working after JF jesus freak 1.5 no GPS
A: be sure you have latest ratio update and that GPS is enabled.

Q: Can I run a server on my T-mobile G1 connection OR I want to enable DMZ or port forward to make torrent client faster etc

Code:

t-mobile in my case is nat'ed so NO direct connection to the internet 
its nat'ed figures


NAT 25.64.158.109 ( There are no routes to 25.0.0.0/8 .... It isn't publicly routable address space over the internet.  (See how far you get when you try to traceroute to any 25.* IP Address).  So, even though this isn't OFICIALLY private address space, it effectively functions like it, since nobody is announcing those addresses. )

public: 208.54.83.76

# g1 route
iptables -t nat -A POSTROUTING -j MASQUERADE -o tiwlan0  
iptables -A PREROUTING -t nat -i rmnet0 -p tcp --dport 22 -j DNAT --to 192.168.2.10:22
iptables -A FORWARD -p tcp -i rmnet0 -o tiwlan0   -d 192.168.2.10 --dport 22 -j ACCEPT

you guys want faqs on like forum usability? i have a ton of them, all original.

markwittig · 12-12-2009, 08:25 AM

All,

Please add additional FAQs to forums that explain how to post. In particular, what do the less obvious buttons in the reply to thread message tool bar do, what does the quote, multiple quotes buttons do, etc.

I stumbled across this in my travels across the interwebs:
Beginner's Guide to Android

Might be helpful?

alankeno · 02-18-2010, 02:24 PM

TY to nonie3234! The guide looks very interesting.

You can search android forums from your address bar in chrome by right clicking the location bar up top (where you type URL) clicking edit search engines and add one with the url

pick a keyword like AF, then when you type in:

Quote:

af droid eris

it will search for droid eris
