So far i have wiped data and dalvik / flashed Eris_Official_0.8.1T2.zip 2.1 Rooted leak for the Eris / did:
mkdir /data/opt/
chmod 0777 /data/opt/
pushed the 2 files to the phone
and chmod 0777 the files after the push
i can do adb shell and go in and run the script (also i verified IP Tables was installed prior by shelling in and typing iptables -h, which listed the help commands, so i assume ip tables is compiled into the kernel in my rom)
i can ping but pings hang and i never get responces, and no apps/browser work.

At one point i did have ping responces working, but i dont remember what i did.
Im starting fresh again now and will post any success i get.

Looking forward to hearing back from gijoey1980 as well to see if he has any more luck than me.

On a side note, my GPS is not working as well, i did go in and QPST the GPS settings on the gpsOne tab in qpst:

as per a post i saw by whitey10tc for the Vogue on another forum, but when i ##33284 everything in GPS says i get an IP but its not staying authenticated, working on that now

##778 shows everything as it should be as well from RyanMogul6800's PST post

ill update if i make it any further

update
ping to 10.133.26.12 works, pinging wap.mycricket.com works, but pinging anything else gives me destination unreachable,which leads me to belive my iptables/u2nl portion are not working right
 
just got up and running on Droid Eris, can anyone with a HTC Hero confirm?

Requirements:
Rooted Rom
Autostart (Root) from android market
u2nl.zip from white rabbits site http://www.whiterabbit.org/
Following Brandon's Guide and replace the internet portion with the steps listed below

Step 2. Setting up Web
What you need: u2nl.zip from white rabbits site http://www.whiterabbit.org/
install Autostart (Root) from android market

Unzip the u2nl.zip to your androidsdk/tools folder so that u2nl and autostart.sh are in your androidsdk/tools folder.
edit the autostart.sh file line:
/system/bin/iptables -t nat -A OUTPUT -o ppp0 -p 6 ! -d 10.133.26.12 -j REDIRECT --to-port 1025
to read like this:
/system/bin/iptables -t nat -A OUTPUT -p 6 ! -d 10.133.26.12 -j REDIRECT --to-port 1025
(you are only removing the "-o ppp0" section, for some reason it made the command fail for me)

adb shell
mount -o rw,remount /dev/block/mtdblock3 /system
cd /data/
mkdir opt
chmod 0777 /data/opt/
exit
adb remount
adb push autostart.sh /data/opt/autostart.sh
adb push u2nl /system/bin/u2nl
adb remount
adb shell
chmod 0777 /data/opt/autostart.sh
chmod 0777 /system/bin/u2nl
reboot
click always allow on the prompt to allow the Autostart app to run at system startup

you should now have working market/apps/web

yep, just verified that, right now im going to edit my previous post and use it as instructions, so we dont have misleading information in the thread during my testing, ill then send brandon a PM and hopefully he can update his post to replace the web portion with these steps

and just to be clear, none of this is my work, i simply searched alot and copy and pasted and tried different settings until i got it to work, all credit goes to every poster of this forum and any references they used :)

Does all of this have to be done if the only thing I need to do is get my market working? I have already rooted my phone, and have mms and net already working.

yep, i edited opened the proxy i created with anycut and cleared it, then deleted it, then deleted anycut then followed the steps i listed and everything was working
 
ok well i cant edit the post in the thread i created, but if you change autostart.sh part to like this:
/system/bin/iptables -t nat -A OUTPUT -o rmnet0 -p 6 ! -d 10.133.26.12 -j REDIRECT --to-port 1025

basically adding in the "-o rmnet0" where the "-o ppp0" was originally, that i had removed, the ##programing features will work again and not Force Close.

GPS/Apps/Browser/MMS all working (Make sure you still do the MMS settings from the original post)
only thing im seeing now is AN/AAA in the field test menu for EVDO says "0 = Not Authenticated" but everything appears to be working well.

not sure why it was authenticated earlier but not anymore. maybe something i did in QPST while messing around with the GPS stuff earlier, which was not needed.
 
Hey, just now got a chance to check in. I figured the autostart.sh would have to be edited some but just haven't had one here to work on. Great job figuring it out and I wouldn't worry about the EVDO saying not authenticated.

You should PM whiterabbitorg and ask him to upload the autostart.sh file for the eris to his site.

Also, this should work exactly the same on the Hero, anyone confirmed yet?
 
Ah lol was just sending you a PM lol,

Anyhow ill message white rabbit incase he wants the files as well :)

Going to message brandon as well and see if he can update the origonal post

but i dont think so since i cant edit my posts on here from 4 hours ago unless im missing something
 
Nice job with the update token. Followed all the steps from brandon and yours and everything is working 100%. Also I wrote 38288 prl instead.
 
np all, again tho i take no credit for this work, it was the work of the motodroid team, brandon, and the members of XDA who put in all their hard work to make it all happen.

can we confirm this works with any HTC Hero's?

if so ill work to see if brandon can include these in the first post, or with his permission, if he can no longer edit his origonal post, that a mod could include the instructions for the web portion.

I have also sent whiterabbitorg a PM to see if he can include the autostart.sh for our phone on his site as well.
 
This worked PERFECTLY on my Sprint Hero!! Thank you so much, this was EXACTLEY what I was looking for! Now everything works on my phone! :clapping:
