Agar Smartfren AndroMax Tab 7-mu Dikenali Oleh ADB (Android Debug Bridge) di Ubuntu Precise Pangoline (12.04)

Ketika terpikir untuk rooting Smartfren AndroMax Tab 7, segera saja saya gugling. Banyak sih yang saya temukan, tapi tak satupun yang menerangkan rooting Smartfren AndroMax  Tab 7 dari Linux atau Ubuntu. Semuanya dari Windows dengan tool ADB! Bahkan blog yg judulnya Linux pun menggunakan Windows! ;)

Apa benar tidak bisa dari Linux? Bisa koq! Caranya?

"Perhatian! Pada bagian ini tidak menjelaskan cara rooting. Kamu saya anggap sudah mengerti bagaimana cara membuat/menyunting berkas teks di Linux, dan sudah menginstal ADB atau Android SDK"

1. Tambahkan baris berikut ke dalam file /etc/udev/rules.d/51-android.rules
   
   SUBSYSTEM=="usb|usb_device", ATTR{idVendor}=="2207", MODE="0666", GROUP="plugdev"
2. Restart udev; sudo restart udev
3. Tambahkan kode 0x2207 ke dalam file ~/.android/adb_usb.ini
4. Tancapkan Smartfren AndroMax  Tab 7 ke Ubuntu melalui USB
5. Periksa dengan perintah $ adb devices

Sekian.

Oh, ya. 2207 adalah vendor ID USB dari Smartfren AndroMax  Tab 7 . Coba jalankan perintah lsusb saat Smartfren AndroMax  Tab 7 tertancap ke Ubuntu, maka akan muncul 2207:0006.

Setup OpenVPN in Ubuntu

To get my work on time schedule, I must bring it as my homework. It is software development. For this purpose, I have to connect my office computer to home computer with VPN.
1st - ISP's Modem
Open firewall or port triggering: 1194 UDP
ThenVirtual Server, forward incoming connection 1194 port to my office computer's IP address.
2dn - Install OpenVPN
Office / Server: Ubuntu 8.04 (Hardy Heron) Server
Home / Client: Ubuntu 8.04 Desktop
Install openvpn in both computers:

sudo apt-get install openvpn

3rd - Configure the server: (see HOWTO for more)

cd /etc/openvpncp -r /usr/share/doc/openvpn/examples/easy-rsa/2.0/ ./easy-rsa/cd easy-rsa

(optionals)

nano ./vars

Change the values:

export KEY_COUNTRY=ID
export KEY_PROVINCE=KEPRIexport KEY_CITY=BATAMexport KEY_ORG="OpenVPN-TEST"
export KEY_EMAIL="eshabe@gimail.com"

(then):

source ./vars

./clean-all

./build-ca

Pay attention in “Common Name”. Example answer: "myfirstvpn"

./build-key-server server

Pay attention in...
“Common Name” - my answer is “server”
“Sign the certificate? [y/n]” - answer “y”
“1 out of 1 certificate requests certified, commit? [y/n]” - answer “y”

./build-key client1

./build-key client2

./build-key client3

./build-dh

Copy key files:

cd /etc/openvpn

cp easy-rsa/keys/server.crt .

cp easy-rsa/keys/server.key .

cp easy-rsa/keys/ca.crt .

cp easy-rsa/keys/dh1024.pem .

Copy example config file:

gunzip /usr/share/doc/openvpn/examples/sample-config-files/server.conf.gz

4th - Configure the client
Copy key files:

cd /etc/openvpn

scp eshabe@125.x.x.x:/etc/openvpn/easy-rsa/keys/client1.crt client.crt

scp eshabe@125.x.x.x:/etc/openvpn/easy-rsa/keys/client1.key client.key

scp eshabe@125.x.x.x:/etc/openvpn/easy-rsa/keys/ca.crt ca.crt

Copy example config file:

cp /usr/share/doc/openvpn/examples/sample-config-files/client.conf .

HowTo: No waiting time in Ubuntu's GRUB

By default, Ubuntu display a GRUB menu and give us ten (10) seconds waiting time for user interaction. If you feel this waiting time is disturbing, you can remove the waiting time by edit the GRUB menu. Set 'timeout' value to 0 (zero).

From Terminal, type:

sudo nano /boot/grub/menu.lst

Change timeout value.

And, do not forget to activate hiddenmenu option. Why? By activating the option, although the timeout is 0 second, we can enter to the GRUB menu by pressing ESC key.

Save the file!
