Udev rules for Nexus One and Dream/Magic

Just found out that I had to change my udev rules for my Nexus One to work with my laptop, which I had made rules for to work with my HTC Magic – the vendor IDs have changed a bit for the Nexus One, so for the Nexus One I use the following rules which reside in /etc/udev/rules.d/50-android.rules

SUBSYSTEM=="usb|usb_device", SYSFS{idVendor}=="18d1", MODE="0660", GROUP="plugdev"
SUBSYSTEM=="usb|usb_device", SYSFS{idVendor}=="0bb4", MODE="0660", GROUP="plugdev"
SUBSYSTEM=="usb|usb_device", ATTR{idVendor}=="18d1", ATTR{idProduct}=="4e12", SYMLINK+="android_adb"
SUBSYSTEM=="usb|usb_device", ATTR{idVendor}=="0bb4", ATTR{idProduct}=="0fff", SYMLINK+="android_fastboot"

This works well with both adb and fastboot.

Oh and for reference I had the following rules for my Magic which ought to work with the Dream as well:

HTC_IME mod with language change built in and other fixes

So it has been a while since I last wrote about this application, and since then there has been some modding to it. A guy called jonasl on XDA-Developers.com, did some modding to it.

Some new features include that you can now change language inside the application, which you could not do before because it required the HTC Framework, which could only be done by changing a configuration file by hand. A lot of other hacks and mods has been done to it, which you can all see in the tread on XDA-developers.com

A new thing is that there are now two versions of the HTC_IME, one for low res screens such as the G1 and Magic and a high res version for Nexus one and other similar devices. But you can read all that in the thread.

This also means that the instructions in my old post about changing language in HTC_IME, is not releveant anymore, and should be considered obsolete, though you are still welcome to use them.
