Remove Netlock

Hi,

someone recently sent me a SH-03C from Japan but unfortunately its still network locked to docomo. Now afaik you can just pay 3000 Yen in the Docomoshop to have them remove the simlock for you but I dont think Ill be in Japan for the next few months so I am looking for a way to remove the dreaded lock. With the bootloader still locked, I reckon there is nothing I can do, can I?
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] Sharpen3d:
Sorry, you're currently locked down. Since this phone never made it out of Japan and Sharp has it under lock and key, you must wait. Unless you have a trusted friend you can send it to and have them do it.

step-3, cd /efs

step-4, then enter "ls" If now nv_data.bak AND nv_data.bak.md5 are displayed move to next step

step-5, mv nv_data.bin nv_data.jpc

step-6, now enter mv nv_data.bin.md5 nv_data.jpc.md5 when tour done doing that reboot phone.

step-7, now when the phone boot's back up go into "settings" then "about phone" after that status, under network it should say unkown and now do the same step from 1 to 3 and move to step 8

step-8, enter "mv nv_data.jpc nv_data.bin" and after that you enter this "mv nv_data.jpc.md5 nv_data.bin.md5"

[G Tablet Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] nkrauss:
I've had a Gtab for a few days and tried TNT 4.4 and now Vegan 5.1, and in both ROMs, my tab keeps freezing. It often freezes on Gallery, but it has frozen elsewhere. I've tried wiping it with clockwork, but the problem wont go away. Any ideas? Any other way of reformatting the drive or anything else?
[G Tablet Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] atakapa:
Since you're familiar with clockworkmod, you could try to re-partition the internal sd to 2048 and 0. WARNING: this will format your device and delete everything on the user partition (what's called "sdcard" in these ROM's), back up all data externally (micro sd or usb flash or pc) or it will be gone!!!

This is a common fix for force close across platforms.

Be Sure To BACKUP Important Data to something other than the Internal Device's 16 GB flash memory.

I would also re-flash whatever ROM you want after the re-partition.

There is also a "format all" procedure from Calkulin in one of his threads in development forum.

Edit: There's a couple of format procedures in the development forum, one uses nvflash (sticky) and Calkulin's looks to be .zip. I haven't used either of these, but I would be familiar with nvflash/apx and have that set-up before attempting either.

Hello

recently i started to play around with after effects and created this small android text animation.

video here:

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0FNnYS0Gz_c

bootanimation.zip here:

http://www.mediafire.com/?vtjifnxq45c5xl8

you install this simply by overwriting your bootanimation in system/media on froyo roms!

I dont know if this works on ginger roms if anyone can say it will be apreciated ;)

the animation is 480x800 for phones like galaxy s, htc desire and so on.

remember to make a copy of your original bootanimation if you want to rever back to it ;)

in future i will be releasing more and more animations like this one if there will be demand!

I am also willing to make custom animationes for rom cooks, so feel free to contact me!

If you like my work, pls consider a small donation as all this stuff requires alot of time!

this is all for now.

cheers!

[Nook Color General] derekr:
I'm planning moving to eMMC CM7 from Nookie Froyo, and want to make sure I have my ducks in a row before committing:

1) I have made Titanium Backups of all my apps to the SD card,

2) I have made a ROM manager backup of the whole system. (just in case I want to bail out)

Anything else to do?

My question is whether I will be able to read the Froyo SD card from CM7 to reinstall the apps? Does the ext4 format extend to the external SD card or just to the internal storage?

Also, does restoring apps via TB restore the settings for those apps as well? For example, will I have to start playing Angry Birds from the beginning again, or will it pick up where I left off (I hate Angry Birds :D )?

Thanks,

Derek
[Nook Color General] RoboRay:
The format of the SD card does not change.

TB gives you the option of restoring apps with or without their data, such as settings, save-games, etc. It's normally safe to restore app data. Just don't select the option to restore system data. If you encounter problems with any specific apps, you can then use TB to wipe their data back to the default settings, as if you had just installed them.
[Nook Color General] woot1524:
CM7, along with every other android rom, uses the external SD-card as storage and storage alone. I actualy went from nookie froyo to CM7 and used titanium backup to reinstall all of my apps. There were however, a couple apps that would for some reason not install. I don't remember which ones, so don't be surprised. EXT-4 only applies to the eMMC (or internal rom), and will only apply once you format /system /data /cache within CWM 3.0.1.0

As far as I know as long as you select to backup the app + data , then restore apps + data Titanium backup will restore the exit state of the apps.

Hope you like and have fun with CM7.

The NEWness (updateing it at least once a week) and ruff around the edges implementation sort of gives it a charm.

In spare parts under battery history check the partial wake usage, is anything above 5%?

In settings/about phone/battery does anything look abnormally high?

Do you use google voice as your vm?

Do you have a check in "turn/flip to silence" in settings/ call settings?

Are you overclocking?

How long between charges does the battery last?

I don't use google voice for vm.

no overclock and the battery last about 5 to 6 hours of moderate use.

Yea ^^^^ he is right that has happened to me before is not a software problem but a hardware issue... you should unroot your phone and take to Sprint and if you have insurance they will replace it but if they ask you if you dropped it tell them no.. just say that you were taking piks or something and you started to get random reboots and your camera started to fail.. I don't knw if their new policy would cover that since people be saying that it has changed but hey it doesn't hurt to try. :)

I had the same issue (pink screen/pink pictures). The repair center put in another camera. I watched them do it. They even tried two cameras and the pictures still were pink.

Guys,

I have tried everything including searching here on this and lots of different forums of similar interest.

I have Motorola Droid with Cyano C7 RC4 installed. its rooted obviously however i have tried almost every other apps and ways to connect my droid1 to my wifi only xoom tablet.

xoom is also rooted running tiamat kernel. i also have no luck for tethering via Bluetooth as well!

can some one help me out please??!
[Xoom General] rlrbjr:
Hmmm... I am not rooted (yet), but have no problems with Bluetooth tether using the wireless tether app. I'm running Simply Stunning 5.2 (which is based on cyanogenmod). Did you try tethering to your OG Droid before you rooted your Xoom? There some step by step instructions on Droid-Life, did you follow something like them?

I hope this isn't a problem with the new kernel. I'm planning on rooting tomorrow and installing that same kernel.
[Xoom General] cam30era:
You don't need an app with CM7 for wireless tethering. Did you try enabling wifi tethering within settings?

No, he's telling u to do that on ur Droid.

Here's your problem though, the droid only does ad-hoc wireless networking. The Xoom can't see ad-hoc right now. Go do a search its well discussed. You'll need to use a bluetooth tether till there's a fix.
[Xoom General] nodnarb:
What he listed are steps to take on your phone to make it a wireless access point for your xoom.

After you follow those instructions you will be able to connect to the broadcasting SSID on your xoom.

[Xoom General] cam30era:
I would suggest that you go to the Droid XDA forum for CM7 and ask for help there. Someone on that forum will be able to help you..
[Xoom General] rlrbjr:
It's pretty well understood that the OG Droid (aka Droid 1) can only support ad-hoc wifi tethering. The Xoom doesn't support ad-hoc (at least not yet). So for now the only day to tether is via Bluetooth. You need the wireless tether app set to Bluetooth. Then once you pair the Droid and the Xoom tethering works fine, although it is a little slower (I normally get about 750kbs best case).
[Xoom General] martonikaj:
Sounds like a separate problem. But either way your Droid will only do ad-hoc networking and WiFi tether probably won't work...

Er, as Slikk says, this is nothing new. There have been iPhone knock-offs for *years* and there are *many* (Engadget has plenty of articles about them too).

If you're surprised about this, you'll probably be surprised to know they're powered by numerous OSes, including Windows Mobile, Android, Symbian, Java-based OS, and etc. Frankly, I highly doubt you'll be able to find dev support for most of them as they're just generic, low quality knock-offs that doesn't find too much support among most people.

What do you mean by "debrand" the phone? And I saw some samsung focus devices with NoDo and the first patch on Youtube.

Can you please also explain how will AT&T send the update? will it be through Zune? (My carrier is not AT&T)
[Focus General] foxbat121:
Updates come from Microsoft to your Zune software. Since your phone is AT&T branded, AT&T is currently blocking all its WP7 phones from receiving updates until it finishes its testing. Debranding requires you to jail break your phone and remove the carrier branding entries in the registry so that your updates are no longer held back by AT&T.

Updates are not coming from AT&T but AT&T can block your phone for receiving updates.

You're looking at end of April time frame for AT&T phones to start receiving current NoDo update.

8gb new SD card

Was rooted to a cyanogen mod 6 (???)

The other day my sd card needed to be replaced. This card had my backup info on it, but became corrupted. I tried using various utilities in Win7 to try to fix the card, but had no success. Somewhere during the process of everything, I must have erased/corrupted the info on the phone itself, as it will no longer boot.It just freezes at the HTC screen.

I am trying to flash a new rom to the phone via the sd card using the hboot method. I have tried various roms, and had one actually start to install itself, but at the end it said the system info is older (not sure of the exact words) and would not proceed. So now I am stuck in what to do.

I want to get my phone working. I don't care if it is the basic stock OS, or something better at this point, as I can mod it once get it up and running. I am able to get to the clockword recovery prompts (if this helps any).
