[Atrix 4G Android Development] MKVFTW:
The settings i used i got from various places on the internet. People adding them to thier build.prop have had success in the past so i gave it a shot. You can google the indivitual meanings of each setting if your curious.

Nosit1, your upload wont get any better until ATT (or Bell) releases a modem with the HSUPA activated. Which could be tomorrow, or a year from now. Who knows?

sulkorp, the build.prop file is a "passport" that the phone uses for the network. It essentially is the signature and information about the phone and the parameters inside it show the network what services to offer.

For the rest of you with the LCD density deal, a 3rd party dialer can be used with no problems but i am working on trying to figure out if a modified stock dialer would work....i HATE the 3rd party ones.
[Atrix 4G Android Development] nosit1:
Yeah, knew we went without HSUPA until the update. Thee increased download is better for at least my area.
[Atrix 4G Android Development] alex_herrero:
Youlu address book is awesome as a dialer replacement.

I'm using density = 230. Everything looks nice, more space between widgets, it's like increasing resolution.
[Atrix 4G Android Development] Djazin:
Noticed just before applying the mod'ed build.prop the mod'ed version had different permissions than the stock version which has rw-r-r so just to avoid anything odd I changed them to the same as the stock version curious if that was necessary at all O.o

Edit:

Holly Hell I just ran the speed test and WOW thank you XD!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

A hell of a lot improvement in the south east region under At&t's shackles My phone can breath!!! Ok heh too much caffeine and being psyched about the speed I have now but thanks for this awesome [How to] upload are ehh still but hey its a start XD

Edit 2: Seemed to have misplaced my stock build.prop for the retail version 1.2.6 if anyone can upload the unmodified build.prop for 1.2.6 I would much appreciate it.

[Q] I can't pass through "ClockMod Recovery". I am stuck, PLEASE HELP, I NEED YOU

HELLO ALL,

I USED THIS LINK http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=858996

TO ROOT MY MY TOUCH 4G PHONE AND IT WORKED FINE UNTIL I ATTEMPT TO INSTALL OVERCLOCKING SOFTWARE FROM>>>

http://theunlockr.com/2010/12/14/ho...ted-s-off-t-mobile-mytouch-4g-or-t-mobile-g2/

AND AFTER DOING WHAT THEU SAID MY PHONE JUST ACTED CRAZY/

EVERYTIME I TRIED TO TURN THE PHONE ON IT VIBRATES CONTINUESLY AND NEVER GETS TO THE OS. SO I LEFT IT ON FOR NIGHT LIKE THAT AND I WOKE UP IN THE MORNING OBVIOUSLY BETTERY WAS COMPLETLY DRAINED ( AFTER ALL THE VIBRATING BACK AND FORTH)

ANYWAYS, NOW IT JUST TURNS ON AND STAYS AT " MY TOUCH 4G SCREEN WHERE ITS WHITE AND THAT WRITING" IT JUST FREEZES.

IF I TRY TO HOLD VOL DOWN AND CLICK POWER BUTTON, I GET TO THE PAGE WHERE ITS WHITE AND FASTBOOT, RECOVERY, FACTORY RESET,SIMLUCK,IMAGE CRC MENU.

I HAVE TRIED EVERYTHING IN THAT MENU INLUDING FACTORY RESET, NOTTING WORKS.

WHEN I ALSO TRY RECOVERY FROM THERE I CAN GET TO "ClockMod Recovery" BUT I CANT EVEN ACCES INSTALL ZIP FROM SDCARD, WHEN I TRY THAT ALL I SEE IS A BLACK SCREEN AND A HAT AND A BIG EYE UNDER IT.

THIS IS SO FRUSTRATING,
[myTouch 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] neidlinger:
Step one, slow down

step two, turn off the caps.

Step three it's obvious that you have s=off if you have clockwork ROM on your phone.

At the top of your phone What recovery image do you have? 3.0.0.5? or a 2.x one?
[myTouch 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ilkercatal:
thank you for responding, I have v3.0.0.5 version

i have v3.0.0.5 version
[myTouch 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] neidlinger:
as long as you do not have any errors on your recovery image about not being able to mount anything....to get your phone working you can do one of two things.

1)You can flash any Gingerbread based ROM either from Cyanogen(mod) or from TeamRoyal. Those all can be found in our Development section from your recovery image.

2) you can flash the PD15IMG and restore you phone back to 100% via the HBoot (engineering) screen, that can be found in our development section as well.
[myTouch 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ilkercatal:
no luck

I get notting but a black screen with hat and eye under, everytime i try to choose anything from clockworkmod menu.I have adb installed on my pc and it regonizes my device , is there a way to reset the phone from there? maybe?
[myTouch 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] KenpoAP:
Are you usin power botton or track pad to select the options?
[myTouch 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] KenpoAP:
You can also check the semi brick thread in here. There is a link to a nice guide to revert back to stock. Exact same issue!
[myTouch 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] neidlinger:
when you select something you need to select it with the track pad. If you use the power button you'll get the text will disappear.

the only way you can use ADB to flash stuff is if you have the engineering bootloader. If you just followed TheUnlockr's method then you do not have it.
[myTouch 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ilkercatal:
i use volume buttons and power button to select it
[myTouch 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ilkercatal:
oh ok now i used the mouse button select and i can select but now the phone is keep resrarting every like 10 seconds with a vibrate, nottting happens just restarting over and over. Where should I go next?

( remember fartest i can go is the "colockworkmod")
[myTouch 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] TeeJay3800:
As he mentioned above, you need to use the trackpad buttons to make selections, NOT the power button.

If you can successfully reboot into recovery, just wipe the phone completely and flash a new ROM...
[myTouch 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] neidlinger:
If you navigate to "advanced" and select it will it give you a new set of options?

if it does try the "mount USB" and plug it into a computer and see if you can surf the SD card via a computer.
[myTouch 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ilkercatal:
i restored from the back up I created before rooting, It took like 2 minutes and I reboot now I have the screen where its says my touch 4g and just stays there. I think my back up file is no good mabe?>, I alsoe noticed when holding vol down and power but the menu comes after it it says on top" glacier pvt ship s-off" does it mean anything?
[myTouch 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ilkercatal:
thank you for help but where do you get a new rom and how do you flash it?
[myTouch 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] neidlinger:
3.0.0.5 is only compatible with 2.3 ROMS.

use this to flash it

http://wiki.cyanogenmod.com/index.p...pdate_Guide#First_Method_.28via_RomManager.29

and you'll want to use the "from recovery" method.
[myTouch 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] KenpoAP:
Your ok! Maybe your bu is2.2 Try any of the 2.3 roms out there and post back!
[myTouch 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Mathato:
Isn't there are flashable 3.0.0.6?
[myTouch 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ilkercatal:
I have 3.0 05

But As I was instructed I have downloaded PD151MG file and put it on my sd card and reboot my phone to the engineering menu and right away it asked me if I want to update to PD151Mg file and I clicked yes I guess this new rom will work for me:)

As of now it is updating.... I will let you guys know later for the result ( I hope I am not doing something even worst :))
[myTouch 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] neidlinger:
There is a flashable 3.0.0.6 image that True_blue Scripted but you have to get into the ROM to do it.

Once you are done with the PD15IMG you will have to reroot your phone. IT will return it to a 100% stock fashion.

after you re-root the phone please flash the 3.0.0.6 to help save any confusion down the road.
[myTouch 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] TeeJay3800:
The original 3.0.0.6 was made by option94, and you can flash it from your existing recovery or fastboot, so booting into a ROM is not necessary.
[myTouch 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] neidlinger:
You need a engineering bootloader to flash from hboot. And you cannot flash a recovery from with in a recovery.

[myTouch 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] TeeJay3800:
I know about the engineering SPL requirement, and I also always thought you could not flash a recovery from your existing recovery, but people are reporting all over XDA that they are successfully doing it that way.
[myTouch 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] neidlinger:
Well i don't trust it. And Google must of changed something with the newer phones. The older Magics and Dreams you couldn't do that.
[myTouch 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] TeeJay3800:
Exactly. I started with the Dream, and way back then, there's no way you could do it from recovery. I don't know what's changed, or maybe all these people are wrong. Totally possible.
[myTouch 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] neidlinger:
I know True_blue's method requires you to flash the image, then go back to RomManager and flash a faux 3.0.0.5, which actually flashes 3.0.0.6. Now i wonder if that is what they are referring to working or if they are "flashing" > reboot > "whoa i got a new recovery image"...
[myTouch 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Christopher3712:
I'm guessing they're talking about the modified 3.0.0.6. You actually flash that file from the existing recovery. I thought it was a little odd too, but I did it. There were some minor changes that were made to allow you to charge your phone w/o it being on. Find the thread here.
[myTouch 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] neidlinger:
So i guess amazinglarry311's version will allow you >reboot to recovery > flash > reboot to recovery > "whoa i got 3.0.0.6".
[myTouch 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Christopher3712:
I didn't look at the script to see what all it writes. I was already on 3.0.0.6 and ran that update so i could do the charge-while-powered-down mod. I don't know if it flashes a newer version of 3.0.0.6 with the modification or just rewrites part of the existing 3.0.0.6 installation. I would ask in that thread if you can run it from a previous CWM version (3.0.0.5 or earlier) to update to the modified 3.0.0.6.
[myTouch 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Nicgraner:
That's the method I used it just doesn't seem possible to overwrite the recovery in your recovery its like drawing on the pen your writing with (terrible analogy I know lol)
[myTouch 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] wasta007:
I had the same problem of recovery mode folder and files was not working first I had to install 3.0.0.2 and then reboot and update to 5.0.2.0 and in recovery mod and use the camera button to select the folder and files .. I hope this helped.

[HD2 General] jmhecker:
I was at my local Wally-World (WalMart) last night and noticed that they are now offering another pre-paid cellular option called WalMart Family Mobile (using T-Mobiles' Network).

I currently have a G1 and an HD2 (Both T-Mobile branded as T-Mobile USA). Will I need to call T-Mobile to acquire unlock codes for this phones to use on the WFM services?

I have searched the Internet, and the responses are 50/50. About half saying yes I will need unlock codes, the other half saying that I won't need them.

So, I took the next logical step and contacted the WFM Customer Support line. I called 6 times...3 of the representatives said I will not need to unlock them, 2 said I will, and one was unsure if I need to or not.

Does anyone here have any experience regarding WFM and T-Mobile branded phones that are still sim-locked?
[HD2 General] T-Macgnolia:
Well I have had no personal experience with sim unlocking my HD2, what IO can tell you though is if you will have to get it unlocked to to use the WMF, you will have to get a unlock code. I suggest you do this if you can, call T-Mobile customer service while you are still a T-Mobile costumer (I see under your sig you are on T-Mobile) and tell them you are going out of country some where for business reasons or vacation and want to get a sim card to use a local prepaid local service while you are there so you need a sim unlock code for your HD2 and G1. It is up to you what you tell them but seeing you have two phones you want to sim unlock I would say vacation so you can say you and your wife will be able to use your phones while on vacation. I say contact T-Mobile while you are still a customer because you have to be a customer for them to give you a code, plus T-Mobile will give you the code for free and you will not have to pay for a code from one of the many sites you can buy a code from, plus you will be guaranteed the codes will be valid. Next, after you have the codes in hand, I would go to Wal-Mart and purchase a months worth of the prepaid service for the WMF but tell the Wal-Mart employee you want to use you HD2 or G1, you decide which one as this is a test, as your phone so you just need a sim card for your phone. I have not checked this WMF out myself but hopefully you do noy have to buy a phone to get a sim card. Once you have said sim card put it in your phone and see if you get service, if you do not get service you will have to enter the unlock code to get service.

I am telling you to do this cause if the WMF uses T-Mobiles network then it is a chance you will not need the codes. But then again it is a chance you will need the codes also. So as you said the way I see it you have a 50/50 shot at having to unlock your HD2 and G1. It is better to go at this being prepared than to go into this and not be prepared. Best of luck with your endeavor and please post back here when you have a definitive answer so others can maybe have this question answered.

One more thing if you are doing this because of the impending buy out of T-Mobile by AT&T, thjen it will probable be in vein as you said the WMF uses T-Mobile's network.
[HD2 General] jmhecker:
I contacted T-Mo to get my unlock code 'just in case'. I did that right after I posted the initial post here. They say I should have it within 24 hours. Here's hoping that I actually get it. (I contacted them a years ago to get an unlock code for one of my Blackberries and never got it).

Anyways, once I get the unlock code, I'll just print the e-mail and take it with me to Walmart when I go get the $25 activation kit (IE: Sim Card).

Walmart says on their site that you can use your existing phone rather than buying one, as long as it is compatible (as long as it is GSM). The website also states that it needs to be unlocked, but as Walmart's main area of focus is not as a cellular provider, I do not put much weight into them saying it needs to be unlocked. It might be referring to non T-Mo phones, lord only knows. I'll find out in a day or two.

As to the reason I am switching....no, it is not due to the AT&T-Mobile merger. I am currently on the T-Mobile FlexPay plan paying $94.34 a month (after taxes) for unlimited everything on my phone. My fiancee's phone is costing $75.67 a month just for unlimited talk and text. That's $170.01 a month for our 2 lines.

With WFM, I can get an unlimited talk/text plan for us that comes out to $70 total for both phones ($45/mo for the first, $25/mo for each additional line). Data is sold in bulk, with the best rate being $40 for 1 gig (or $4 per 100meg). That 1 gig of mobile data should last us quite a while, as the unused portion will roll over each month. Even if we used the entire gig every month, that is still only $110 a month ($70 for the voice/text and $40 for the data). The $110/mo is still $60.00 cheaper. That's a win-win in my book.

The best part is that my phone number (which ends in 4000, perfect for my business) has been ported to Google Voice, so I can keep it and not have to worry if the WFM plans cease to exist if the AT&T-Mobile merger is approved.
[HD2 General] T-Macgnolia:
Hey sounds like you and your wife are in the same boat as me and my wife. I pay a total of $225 a month (I think? She always pays the bill so I am not 100% sure that figure is correct) for our service with T-Mobile. The WMF thing sounds interesting to me but I would lose out in the long run if I switched cause I run pretty close to the 5GB soft cap T-Mobile has every month. I use my HD2 has a WiFi hotspot all the time at home cause I am not paying the high prices the internet providers want for set up and monthly service around my area. I only have Edge at in my interior area as well so just regular web browsing is fast enough for me. If I want to download anything or watch Youtube videos or any other vedios I just go to a public WiFi spot. If the WMF sold more than one gig at a time of data I might would switch but seeing as they don't I can not right now. Lord only knows what is going to happen to me using my HD2 as a WiFi hotspot when AT&T takes over. :confused:
[HD2 General] jmhecker:
I'm surprised T-Mo hasn't cut your data off yet...I use my HD2 as a wifi hotspot while I am on the road (gotta love it when my phone shows the H rather than E, hehe). Anyways, one month I hit over 10 gigs and they nailed me and throttled my internet speeds for the rest of the month.

It's sad though...there are times that I get faster internet through T-Mo by tethering my laptop to my HD2 than I do on a time warner cable connection.
[HD2 General] T-Macgnolia:
Ha yeah I do worry about getting throttled, but I really try to just use it for basic wed browsing nothing else while I am at home. For basic web browsing the Edge I get at home is cool, I have never had a chance to try it when I have 3G avaliable. I don't think I have ever seen the H on my HD2 lol. What can I say I live in the boonies :o
[HD2 General] nesta17:
You DO NOT have to unlock tmobile phones to use WFM. I use an HD2 (running windows moblie and Android dual boot) and my wife has a HTC dash and neither is unlocked. If you want to use another GSM phone (ATT) then it will need to be unlocked.

This is the best deal out there if you do not use a lot of data. Been using it since last Oct and am very satisfied.
[HD2 General] T-Macgnolia:
Thanks for the info there nesta17. this is good to know, I figured you wouldn't have to unlock it seeing as WMF uses the T-Mobile network. But you never know about this mobile carrier companies. LOL
[HD2 General] jmhecker:
Okay, quick update:

First of all, Walmart sucks! I went to the location here in town late last night to buy 2 of their activation kits (one for me and one for the wifey). I went to the electronics department and told the cashier that I needed to purchase 2 "Walmart Family Mobile Activation Kits"...he said that they can not sell those after 9:00 PM. He stated that was Walmart policy. I explained to him that I only want to buy the kit, I do not want/need him to activate the phones, as I will be doing that at home. He stuck to his story.

As I am a person that rarely believes a word any employee of Walmart (or any other store) says, I immediately went to the customer service desk to inquire. They said that the employee in electronics was correct. Still, I was doubtful. So, I grabbed my HD2 and googled for the walmart that is about 5 miles down the road. I asked for electronics and spoke with an individual named Tom. I asked him if they have the WFM Activation Kits, and he said they do. He then continued on saying that there is no 'activation associate' on staff (the last one leaves at 9PM), so if I wanted to activate in the store I would have to wait until the morning. I told him that I only wish to purchase the activation kit so I could activate it at home. He said that is not a problem, and I rushed on over. at 11:45PM I purchased the kit (well after 9:00PM, proving the first employee wrong).

I get home, activated the SIM Cards without a problem. All I needed was the IMEI of my phones, the activation number for each SIM Card (provided in the Activation Kit) as well as the SIM Card itself (also in the Activation Kit). I popped the SIM card into my HD2 and powered it up. It no longer said T-Mobile on the lockscreen, but read as "Family Mobile". There was no need to unlock the phone, and everything works as expected.

The service is just as it would be with T-Mobile, obviously. I still get the H showing on my notification bar using the same APN settings as T-Mobile. I switch from H/3G/E/G as I drive, so it is correctly changing the network(s) I hit as I drive around (I travel a lot for work).

MMS/Texts/E-Mails/etc all work as expected. I could not be any happier.

I am going to install Windows Mobile 6.5 on it later today just so I can run the Simlock program to unlock the phone, then go right back to Android. (I have the unlock code, I might as well just use it, heh)

I went from nearly $200/mo for 2 phones down to less than $80 (after taxes). I can't complain.
[HD2 General] T-Macgnolia:
Hey jmhecker check your in box I sent you a PM man.
[Nook Color General] Fnord12:
like namely, neither one will boot.

Grabed the Nookie Froyo boot image, wrote it onto a card (8Gig AData Class 6 card) with my linux box then watched as whole lot of nothing happened.

Saw a "Loading..." screen for a bit then "ANDROID.." and it stops there.

Somewhat similar problem with CM7. The installer version never could finish. Froze just past the mkfs the first time, second time got past the extract process, third time it said it made it and to restart. Never made it past that and actually booted.

Found a pre-done CM7 image, just sat at the logo screen for a long time before I shut it off. (like ~15 minutes)

The honeycomb preview image I found also didn't work...

I've tried both ones I have avaliable right now. (they're both identical from a different (failed) project involving a PSP and a Mem Stick Pro Duo adapter)

Technically I do have a 4Gig Class 4 in my MP3 player but i'd rather avoid using it. (it's near full right now and i'd have to copy everything off of it)

Right now i'm just wondering what's going on?
[Nook Color General] Fnord12:
ok, just tried the Kingston 4gb class 4 card

Used the win32 disk imager program to write the nookie froyo image to the sd card.

Works fine, if a bit sluggish (class 4 card, ~15MB/sec read, ~5-6 writes, what do I expect here)

so i'll make an assumption that the Adata cards aren't suitable for use? Really sucks if this is true, was hoping to avoid spending any more money on this.

Now my only problem is that SoftKeys is misbehaving "Unable to execute as root"

Should I just tough it out on 2.1 until the "official" 2.2 or CM7 comes out? (heard something about how sleep is broken)

Sorta sucks a little as there's a 2.2 only app I rather wanted to run.
[Nook Color General] johnmagoo:
Is softkeys the only app that cant get root privileges? I guess you could try to fix permisions in rom manager, it wont hurt anything
