After installing OpenWrt I realised that wifi is not supported on the device.
I tried the following with no success:
Uploading the stock firmware over ethernet and using the GUI using: LuCI web interface System → Backup / Flash Firmware → “Flash new firmware image”.
The uploaded firmware shows the hash value however the router reboots with the same install of OpenWrt and no changes appear to be made.
Using ASUS Firmware Restoration version 2.1.0.3 over ethernet
This fails saying that the IP range is invalid. I'm assuming the software tries to connect but it can't since the firmware is different. I expected it to fail but tried anyways in case there is some sort of base management controller in the router.
The latest firmware downloaded from the official asus website contains the following zipped file: GT-AC5300_3.0.0.4_386_42643-g16dc577_cferom_ubi.w which is not a .trx or .bin extension but it does seem to pass validation in the GUI.
I've tried different historical versions of the firmware as well with no luck.
There is no recovery method specified on the device page: https://openwrt.org/toh/hwdata/asus/asus_gt-ac5300. How to revert the firmware back to stock?
did you try with sysupgrade cmd (source from here https://forum.openwrt.org/t/gt-ac5300-support/13346/14)

I'm using the latest build of Windows IoT for the Galileo Gen2 (9600.16384.x86fre.winblue_rtm_iotbuild.150309-0310_galileo_v2) and writing Wiring applications in VS2013Pro.
I want to start building network connections, but the first parameter I need to specify is the MAC address. The board came with a MAC printed on a sticker on the mag-jack, but did it get written to the onboard flash somewhere? Were do I find it from inside my Wiring/IoT app?
Ron,
You may try logging into the device via telnet and running 'getmac' or 'ipconfig /all'. This should give you the MAC address for your device.
Background
A few years ago I was developing for C#, WPF and Silverlight and then moved to developing for Android.
I've decided to give Windows phone a try, and install the newest Visual Studio Pro 2012 with its Windows phone sdk, together with the latest version of Windows - windows 8 pro.
I've created a new Windows phone project hoping I will start learning from a hello world project, and I've launched the emulator .
Some specs information
OS is windows 8 pro (final) . 64 bit CPU .
Visual Studio Pro 2012
Windows phone sdk 8
Connected by usb to a wireless D-Link device (DWA-140) .
The problem
Just as soon as I've started the emulator, a dialog came asking if I want to enable networking:
When I chose that I want, an error has appeared:
After selecting ok, the emulator crashed.
Knowing how to search for solutions on the internet, I've found a few (like here and here ) that suggested me to delete the network switches, create an internal switch, and whatnot.
The question
I don't understand what I'm doing wrong, and this is just my starting point. Can anyone please help me with this error and how to make the emulator work?
Please tell me the exact steps that I need to take.
EDIT: after uninstallation of anything related to VS and WP , i've re-installed them both and i still get the same errors.
Not only that , but when trying to create a new external switch (which some websites offered) , it showed me the next error :
How could such a basic feature of an emulator be missing out of the box ?
You might try a couple of things.
First, verify the network connection settings for the "vEthernet (Internal Ethernet Port Windows Phone Emulator Internal Switch)" adapter.
To do so, open "Control Panel\Network and Internet\Network Connections" in Control Panel. Right click on the "vEthernet (Internal Ethernet Port Windows Phone Emulator Internal Switch)" adapter, and choose "Properties". Under "This connection uses the following items:" verify that ONLY the following options are selected:
Client for Microsoft Networks
QoS Packet Scheduler
File and Printer Sharing for Microsoft Networks
Microsoft LLDP Protocol Driver
Link-Layer Topology Discovery Mapper I/O Driver
Link-Layer Topology Discovery Responder
Internet Protocol Version 6 (TCP/IPv6)
Internet Protocol Version 4 (TCP/IPv4)
In addition, you may want to review the network adapter settings for the emulator image in "Hyper-V Manager"
Verify the network adapters that are shown are valid. You might try disabling some (like the adapters connected to the WiFi or Wired Ethernet adapters on your machine) if the adapters they are bound to are not currently enabled in the OS.
Let me know if that helps!
I suspect you may be running afoul of UAC. As you've noted, it's trying to create a virtual device. Doing so requires elevated permissions. If I were you I would either run VS2012 as Administrator or completely disable UAC until it's all installed and configured, and then you can turn UAC back on if you prefer it on. I think Allen's comment about manually creating a VM with the appropriate networking is astute and a worthwhile experiment, since it sidesteps the possible UAC issues.
When running an app on an iPhone/iPad via Xcode, is there anyway to open files for writing on the Mac?
I have an app which requires the device to run, so using the simulator isn't an option. I do however need to analyze some of the app's output. Currently I have to write to files on the device, and then manually sync them to the Mac. I'm looking for a way to write my files to the Mac directly.
I recommend using NSLogger to stream your log data via Bonjour to the Mac. It has a Mac application that allows you view the data as it is coming in.
For more advanced logging you can also combine NSLogger with the CocoaLumberJack framework using this connector project.
Probably the best possible solution for your situation probably rests with leveraging the console and NSLog to redirect output to a file - that's an open channel between the device and the Mac you can leverage as long as your running the app from Xcode.
There are a number of questions and answers relating to how to do this - here's one:
Log XCode gdb output to file with .gdbinit
This solution assumes that you only need to be doing this when running the app through Xcode, which your question implies. If you need to write to the Mac when running the app directly on the device (not debugging) you would need to use some type of network file transfer, such as FTP or HTTP. You could probably whip up a simple HTTP-based logging app that would run on the Mac using:
https://github.com/robbiehanson/CocoaHTTPServer
Then you would just send the content line-by-line to the server. Many other possible approaches along those lines, and probably an existing Mac-based solution you could leverage.
As part of a BlackBerry project I'm working on I need the ability to store data. As per RIM's documentation, on handsets running v5 or later OS, we can use the SQLite database versus the more typical PersistenceStore methods.
What I noticed is when my handset (A Torch 2) is plugged-in via the USB cable - so that I can run code through the debugger - the "SDCard/" and the "store/" are no longer available (both of these are NO longer enumerated when calling FileSystemRegistry.listRoots). Only "system/" is available, but as it's a read-only file system this does me little good.
I need a read/write file system that will be available even if the handset is attached to a PC.
It's worth noting that when I plug my handset in I get a dialog that asks how I want this connected: Sync Media, Mass storage device, or Charge Only are the 3 options. It does not matter which I choose ... the effects are the same in that only "system/" is available for a file system.
Any advice or help is greatly appreciated.
-------------------------------------- UPDATE --------------------------------------
I spoke with RIM's developer tech support on this issue and was simply informed this is a FAD. Their advice was
"This is not a bug, it is how the device is meant to function. You can
listen for when the device is connected via USB and the data
unavailable using SystemListener2."
As such it appears all we can do is alert the user to the fact that by plugging their handsets into the USB cables whatever functionaltiy you might require in your application that would include the file system will temporarily be unavailable. It might be functions as designed but I hope at some point they'll improve the design.
I'm afraid to say I struggled briefly with this and then gave up.
In my experience RIM mounts the SD card on the pc filesystem when you connect it via USB no matter what you do.
If you "eject" your device from the machine you should be able to access the sd card.
Installing by cable with 'javaloader -usb load app.cod' works fine, and the app runs on the device with no problems, as on the simulator. The cod is using restricted APIs, but it's signed. The alx is a trivial nearly-empty one generated by JDE 5.0.
Despite all this, trying to load it onto the device (BB 8900) in the applications section of the Blackberry Desktop Software says:
'There was an error importing files.
No additional applications can be found. Your file might contains applications that already exist in the application list, are not compatible for your device, or have errors'.
I quite need this to be installable with users' standard tools. What can I do about this? Is there any way I can get the desktop app to give me more information?
Not really enough information to answer but on potential cause is the version data in your ALX. If you have not removed the application (using javaloader) before trying to install with Desktop Manager, and the version information in the ALX is not higher than the module version data the software won't install.
There could be other problems, but without the acutal ALX, and the OS version information for the device it is difficult to say what they may be.
