@chevron hack

have you synced your phone with zune?

is your screen unlocked (phone) during you want to chevron it?

@no internet problem

Internet -> you have to type in the "apn settings" you find it under settings -> provider or anything like this, sorry have a german one

to know what you have to input, google for "apn settings <provider>"

Alternative way with the samsung tool (network profile) if it is in your rom.
[Omnia 7 General] KauTschuk:
@chevron hack

all done like in the tut, the screen blank on the main menu

@no internet problem

i´ll check it out know for the apn settings, found them before but got to the provider and he said that it is locked and i have to check out for unlocking or updating (something like this)

if you´re german, it´s fine for me to write in german ^^
[Omnia 7 General] KauTschuk:
how annoying sh**

got the internet problem, thanks 0711

just needed to add this 10 letters word in the settings

now another question, is it possible getting homebrew apps without chevron or better said, is there another possibility??
[Omnia 7 General] TheAperture:
No. Without Chveron, your only way of getting apps is through the MS marketplace.
[Omnia 7 General] KauTschuk:
so, what could be the problem that chevron can´t see my phone?

got the hole pogramm pack installed, registry key, the protocol installed but it won´t work
[Omnia 7 General] KauTschuk:
So, now i have some strange problems with the mobilenet. I have allways the icon of the connection, but the explorer, market ect. Cant get the connection. Now i am in school writting this in my phone, but i cant use the market. Some ideas to fix?

[HTC Desire S] datoml:
Hi everybody. I searched a bit at google... but i dont find any answer.

Is it possible to flash the [Sense2.1 GingerBread]InsertCoin CM7/STOCK HBOOT v17 Rom on Desire S?

thnx
[HTC Desire S] Sib64:
If you're root, or S-off, no problem ;)

Except if your DS come from India or China, you need a goldcard.

S-On, wait.
[HTC Desire S] datoml:
Ok, i see.

I have s-off and rooted. Goldcard too =).

Thx for the info.
[HTC Desire S] dont know:
*?*

You recomend to flash a Desire_ ROM to a Desire_S_?

Desire and DesireS do not have the same hw, so the drivers will not work...
[HTC Desire S] Sib64:
Sorry I haven't seen it was a rom for Desire.

Secondly, I did not recommend to flash this rom, I gave him the necessary conditions.
[HTC Desire S] dont know:
As he is s-off "no problem" IS a recommandation & one important condition was missing: "you have to have a Desire and not a Desire S" ;)
[HTC Desire S] datoml:
To complete everything.

For instance i would try to flash this rom. The worst case possible is, that the rom dont boot cause of the missing drivers right?

So I am allways able to flash a backup with recovery right?

Only in theory =)

[G2 and Desire Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] qtlestat:
Hi I would like to know if there would be a problem if I flash the official rue of an Asian desire z with a european version or vice versa?

I bought my phone second hand and I decided to flash the 1.34.707.1 version into my originally 1.72 desire z. Now my phone cannot find updates. It keeps telling me that there is no update even if check manually.

I know that I can flash a higher version by downloading a higher rue version but what I wanted to find out if I can no longer receive ota updates because of what I did.

Since when I was in 1.72 my phone did not notify me of the 1.82 update too...

I don't know what's wrong.. Please help. Thank you.
[G2 and Desire Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] redpoint73:
I think if you are SuperCID and S-Off, it would work. Otherwise, it won't let you flash the ROM from another region.

Also, if you flash an official ROM, you will lose root, and you can't get it back on any ROM version higher than 1.34. For this reason, if you downgraded to 1.34 for purposes of rooting, you don't want the OTA updates, anyway.

If you're rooted and S-Off, and you want a more updated ROM version, just flash the Virtuous custom ROM. Its mostly stock 1.85, but rooted, and with a few cool added features and some optimizations.
[G2 and Desire Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] qtlestat:
Hi, the thing is I'm not very knowledgeable when it comes to rooting. I read the posts here specifically in the wii section and I don't think I have the skills to pull it off and risk bricking my phone.

I think my phone is not rooted or it was before but not anymore, since as mentioned I flashed an official ruu.

So basically, I should still be able to receive OTA's from HTC right? I was wondering why my phone keeps telling me there's no update when the software number is 1.34 stock and not rooted. Shouldn't it notify me that there's an update at least regardless of whether I want to or not?
[G2 and Desire Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] redpoint73:
If you are not rooted, why did you downgrade to 1.34?

I also don't understand why you want to flash the RUU from a different region. If you aren't SuperCID and S-Off it won't work. Why not just flash the latest official RUU for your phone versions/region if you want to be updated and don't care about root?

I'm not sure why your OTA's don't work. I'm still on 1.34 (well, back to it), and I still get notifications to update.
[G2 and Desire Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] qtlestat:
@redpoint73

I bought the phone from a friend of mine. I noticed that it had eng hboot and had s-off.

I have zero knowledge about rooting. When the gingerbread test rom for the desire z came out, I flashed the pc10img.zip via the bootloader, however since it was very buggy and laggy, I decided to flash stock desire z rom.

Having no knowledge about rooting I read some of the threads in this forum and learned that flashing an official rom i.e. the RUU would be the easiest way to return back to stock.

It worked, I am using stock rom. I experimented and found out that I can flash any of the RUU, so I chose any of the WWE release. I decided to flash an older firmware version specifically, the 1.34.707.1.

Now the problem is my phone doesn't prompt me with an update, even after checking in about phone > check for update.

I still have s-off but eng hboot is gone. To clarify I was not the one who rooted the phone, so I have no idea what to do.

Is it possible that the previous owner tweaked something in the phone that would absolutely prevent it from receiving OTA?

I am just worried since I have a feeling that the gingerbread OTA will be released in a few weeks since the update for the Desire HD is already out.

Please help and thank you again. I extremely as a NOOB!
[G2 and Desire Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] redpoint73:
I wouldn't worry about getting the official Gingerbread ROM OTA. It will probably be posted here or at shipped-roms.com long before you would get it OTA.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] BaggyBizzle:
Hey Guys and Gals......

I am about to purchase a Shiny New SGSII from o2 in a couple of Days (when i get paid LOLOL) and was wondering this........

Are there any problems to look out for if the Handset is SimLocked?

The reason i ask is because i flashed my unlocked SGS easily and often with no problems at all...whereas i did this for a friend who had his with an ORANGE contract and had numerous problems/bugs etc. Am i just paranoid about having to stick with o2 and is the switching of Sims the only gripe people have if the phone is simlocked. Can anyone shed any light please....

Cheers
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] steve228uk:
Orange cram their phones with bloat like 'Orange Maps' and 'Orange Messenger'. They even removed Google Maps and GTalk from my Desire so I wouldn't touch another of their phones with a barge pole!

O2 seem pretty harmless bar a wallpaper and start-up animation.

The only thing to look out for is the release of updates. Carriers take time 'testing' (which in Orange's case means adding their ****ware to it) so updates can be delayed by a few weeks.

If you want the latest then get a sim-free/unlocked handset. Phones4U and CPW usually hand them out on contract and I expect PAYG too.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] BaggyBizzle:
Thanks for the reply but i flashed both handsets with ODIN and the contract phone had problems. My question above should have read............

Do i need to remove the simlock 1st before i flash a Custom Rom? Can there be problems otherwise?
[T-Mobile LG G2x] mindrajana:
Just want to post my finding.

I had the weirdest problem with my g2x yesterday. I was using the sd card from my hd2 to flash new rom and right after I flashed the new rom, I noticed that the wifi calling has really bad sound quality. I tried everything to figure out the problem and the wifi calling would still have problem. People could hear me from the other end but I can only hear echoes of their voices.

After getting ready to return the phone, I took out the sd card and voila.... everything works again!

Hopefully my story can help other people out there.

I saw that the Desire HD is getting the 2.3 pushed in Europe. Is this going to change our wonderful rooted roms to a newer GB version or are they all off this current release?
[HTC Inspire 4G] homeslice976:
There are a few ROMs that are already available to us based off of the official HTC Gingerbread release

Android Revolution

RCMiX

Inspired Ace

To name a few

In Coredroid's thread the latest change log says it's still using a leaked GB version, but it may be different on the DHD forum

[HTC Inspire 4G] homeslice976:
I only repeat what I read in the chef's posts

From Revolution "About" section:

Android 2.3.3 (Gingerbread) - official HTC RUU 2.36.405.8

From RCMiX:

This rom is based on Official Android 2.3.3 (Gingerbread) - Ace S build 2.36.405.8

From Inspired Ace "Features":

-Based on the latest official unbranded Desire HD ROM - RUU 2.36.405.8 (Android 2.3.3 Gingerbread w/ Sense 2.1)

I'm running Revolution, and with the latest update came a custom kernel. Now Gingerbread is overclocked, too :)

[HTC Inspire 4G] homeslice976:
From what i've seen .5 was released approximately April 29, .8 was released approximately May 2.

Check the Change Log in Revolution. When he originally released Revolution 5.0 it was with RUU 2.36.405.5, but his next release was 2.36.405.8
[HTC Inspire 4G] droe411:
I know, I have ran both. But when the update was reported this morning, and on HTC's Desire HD website it says 2.36.405.5 is what is going out to phones.
[HTC Inspire 4G] pmelt:
I was wondering the same thing and haven't found anything concrete... I will add that in the DesireHD forum some were reporting the version after the update was in fact 2.36.405.8 so it could be what homeslice inferred...
[HTC Inspire 4G] droe411:
Must be a typo by HTC, every one who is updating are reporting 2.36.405.8.......

[Optimus One, P500, V General] Evernothing:
My girlfriend has a problem with her LG Optimus One

When she holds the phone to her face in-call it hits speaker phone and mute almost every time.

Is there a way to lock the phone when in-call?

Is there a way to change the in-call display without root?

Would a new dialer fix this (will that work without root)?

Sorry if an answer to this has been posted before, I searched but did not find anything to solve this particular problem.
[Optimus One, P500, V General] Jackmax32:
Weird..May be the proximity sensor is dead...Or may b ur GF might hv coverd it with a screen protector n thus nno sensor reaction..
[Optimus One, P500, V General] Evernothing:
No screen protector.

And it works when she first gets in-call...but after being in call for a bit held to her face it turns on speaker or mute or both.
[Optimus One, P500, V General] kopchev:
Either the proximity sensor doesn't work, or your girlfriend holds the phone away from her ear so some light can pass.

Have you recently factory reset your steal and used an app to restore system settings? from my experience restoring the settings have caused similar issues.

try going to applications - manage applications - all (tab on the top) and try seeing in clearing the data in settings and settings storage will help. Btw this will most likely clear whatever settings you have set

Hey guys, sorry to bother everyone with another question about the update but there are a few things I could really use clarification on if it's not too much trouble.'

I'm currently on 1.57, gingerbreak rooted, gladi ROM and sbf flashed the hsupa radio. I can't really find anything about what's done in the update so i can't even tell if it'd be worth it for me to update. Will anything happen if I don't update? I didn't have any problems with my iphone when I skipped over 3 or 4 updates...just want to make sure nothing bad will happen.

Next, if I do want to update (which I don't think I will because I'm reading that a lot of people have been having problems with some things) if there a program I can use to save all of my rooted features and re-apply them after I've updated? I read about beforeupdate and afterupdate but I can't find any information about what they do and if they'll do what I'm looking for.

I'm thinking that with this update being buggy, moto will have to roll out another update pretty soon and maybe I should just wait for that one.

You can use Titanium Backup to backup your user apps, I would recommend NEVER BACKUP/RESTORE SYSTEM APPS because you can get a lot of force closes and stuff.. Thats happened to me in the past.

[Atrix 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Dirtburgler:
If you have the time and the patience, go back to 1.26 and OTA update to 1.83. The majority of the problems your reading about are from phones that are modded and have been altered and then updated. I had similar issues with my phone after the update, much like the others your reading about. Not staying up to date on official updates could leave you in the dark if a new update comes out and you find yourself stuck with a phone that cant be updated (easily). The 1.87 radio works but made my Atrix hot and chewed up battery. Im not saying its going to make a difference for you, With titanium backup and gingerbreak available now, its easy peasy to root and bring your phone back to your liking very quickly.

Beforeupdate and Afterupdate are used to retain root across upgrades. Gingerbreak is easier(click click, launch= rooted)
[Atrix 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] spitefulcheerio:
so you're saying you updated without flashing back or anything (without changing ANY settings) and you retained everything?
[Atrix 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] WiredPirate:
That is correct. I was on 1.57 rooted w/ GladRoot, NO MODS. I accepted the update, ran "afterupdate" from the GladRoot .zip. Now I'm on rooted and on 1.83.

EDIT: You cannot use this method btw since you have modded. You have to sbf first.
[Atrix 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] spitefulcheerio:
Yeah i know I once I'm updated, I can root again but I've downloaded tons of apps and changed so many settings to get this phone to run exactly how I want. I've spent a good amount of time changing little things here and there and I don't want to lose all of it!

Is there away to retain all of this information through some kind of backup or something? I have all my apps and user data backed up with TiBackup. If I go back to 1.26 and then update to 1.83, can i restore using TiBackup?
[Atrix 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Dirtburgler:
im not too keen on titanium backup other than how to use it for the most part lol. The static phone settings will be defaulted to shipping state if you go back to 1.26. there may be a way to do what you are trying but that's out of my league. These is a setting in Titanium to transfer phone settings across Rom's but i've never tried nor have i seen it on the Atrix Forum. (I never really looked for it, didnt need it, so there may be a thread on it.)

Anyone know how to resolve this?
[Galaxy S II General] bigmo7:
Yeah...

You need the APN settings for Orange for this to work.

Try this and report back:

Android APN and Data Settings for Orange UK

I have put the settings below however if you find that they are not working , then just dial 156 to get to the support team for settings-(and let me know via comment so I can update this post)

Go to settings -> wireless controls

Go to Mobile Networks -> Access Point Names

Make sure you select and delete each APN on the list.

Click Menu and select New APN

Use the following settings:

Name = Orange Internet

APN = orangeinternet (case sensitive)

MCC:234

MNC:33

APN Type: default

Ignore everything else and leave it as <Not set>

Then press menu and save and then turn off the phone and restart and you are done!

So...

I own a Bell Atrix. My carrier is Bell.

I flashed my phone with OLYEM 1.4.2.

Rooted it with Seven's script.

Made sure ADB was allowed to su.

Installed GingerBlur.

Phone got stuck in a reboot loop.

Re-flashed with OLYEM.

Now, I cannot mount my microSD. The settings show as unavailable and the manual mount is greyed out. I have tried a battery pull, a different microSD etc. My microSD works flawlessly in a different phone. I really do not know what crapped it. Was it GingerBlur, the flashing or just bad luck...

This means I cannot root the phone anymore and im stuck with OLYEM and a defective phone.

I took the phone to Bell for repair. They said it's been over 30 days from the buy date so they have to send it to an external firm to have it checked... I just hope they will not come back to me saying I voided my warranty.

Please let me know if you have had this problem or if you think there is something to be done if worst comes to worst.

Thanks!
[Atrix 4G General] brucewee:
I had the same issue but it wasn't related to updating. I had to take the sd card out and press down on the metal piece that holds the card in place to get it to have better contact. This worked for a while and then i pressed down even harder and it wouldn't read at all so I had to stick something under the metal thing and pry it back up and now it works great.
[Atrix 4G General] GoodFoot:
Just semantics, but it should be "micro SD", rather than "mini SD" (which is a different card type).
[Atrix 4G General] M.k.s:
What did you stick under it to pry it back up? I may have to do this myself so I just want to know,
[Atrix 4G General] brucewee:
I used the semi-pointed but round end of a nice pen to press it down and when I had to reverse it I used the nail file part of some little finger nail clippers. Just stuff I had sitting around at my desk at work :)
[Atrix 4G General] internetz:
Thanks for the suggestion! If I get it back and it's not fixed, I will try that. Bell rep told me it would take from 3 to 6 weeks. Yeah... 6 weeks.

Meanwhile, they gave an HTC Desire Z. I really like SenseUI. It works so much better for me when I compare it to Motoblehh. However, I do not like the feeling of the phone. The movable parts do not appeal to me.

Ok, going really basic and this probably is not your issue, but I just had the same issue with a camera and one phone not recognizing one of my cards.
