And as usual, that means Sprint will be screwing it up for 2 months. Remember Galaxy S line in Europe had Froyo in November. Sprint just released it last month.

And Syndicate don't give ETAs. You should have EE03 ROM from ACS soon.

If You can be so kind and help me with THIS problem: I bought the phone with lock and wallpaper password (the seller keeps saying thtat knows nothing about it - I don't belive him - somebody had to set this password.) I cant find the way to reset this password to use the phone normally .

I tried to solve the problem by replaceing SD CARD but:

When i pull out 8GB original SD card out (SANDISK CLASS 4)- phone starts normally and doesn't ask about password. When i put the card in again -phone is locked again and what is more showing info that next possible try to enter the password is after 1690 minutes!!! I put in another SD card from my HTC HD2 (SAN DISK 8GB , CLASS 2) and have made a phone reset (trough menu).Than i made the reset witht pulling out battery during the screen turnes black during restart. It didn't help - the phone doesn't see this card and shows only 15,7 MB of space. Mybe I should buy another new SD card and try again with this one...? Any ideas? I dont what to do...Thanks
[Venue Pro General] alodar1:
I put a reply up on the Dell forums for you
[Venue Pro General] maxx.lu:
Thanks - but here is my answe-post on Your advise and continuation of my problems...

Well - I dont know if it makes sense or not but the facts are:

1. My phone starts and works without any sd card in slot - shows only 15,7 MB of memory then

2. If i follow the process You explained my phone does not go in to the process of hard/sof reset. I cant make him to go to any initial process/screen. By the way - after pulling out battery/replaceing sd/putting battery in - You mean the phone should automaticly contiuing this process of restart or i should turn power off ? Franlky saying i have to turn it on again because after puting battery in again nothong happens.

3. After restart situation is the same - phone didn't integrate system with SD card - shows only 15,7 MB of sapce

Any ideas what is wrong with it? Or mybe I am doing sth wrong?

Any other ideas of resetting this password and without replaceing oryginall SD CARD?
[Venue Pro General] alodar1:
Ok....this is weird.

without an SD card, the memory should read around 408mb or so. So, what you're saying cannot b indicates something is not right. So, lets look at what is known:

1. SD card is not an interchangable item in WP7. If the device starts without a card. Then proceed without a card.

2. Stock memory without a card is around 400mb.

3. A hard reset and a soft reset are 2 different things. A soft reset, you can pull the battery. A hard reset will force you to set you device back up from scratch From what you describe, this is not happening.

So, step by step.

1. If your device starts without your SD card, pull the card and start your device.

2. On your device, go to Settings, then about, and choose reset your device.

3. Let the device rest, following any instructions on the screen. Eventually the device will reset, reboot, and ask you to set it up. Go ahead and log in with a Windows LIVE ID, but do not install anything else.

4. Once this is complete, go to Settings, About and read the memory setings. It should read about 400mb.

The device should now work. Does it?

If it does, then do this.

1. Go to settings, then about, and reset your device. Allow the device to begin to reboot.

2, While the screen is still black, pull the battery. Put the SD card. Put the battery back in, Start the device and allow the setup to continue.

3. Log in with a Windows Live ID and let the setup complete.

4. Go to settings, about, and look at the memory info. You should now see something like 15.9g instead of 15.7m.

If the first part does not work then something is wrong with the device. Most likely, no one here can help. You might have to call Dell for help...though there is little they can do.

let me know what happens...
[Venue Pro General] alodar1:
I just thought of something else.....long shot. what if this is not an OS password but rather a SIM lock password or even a an unlock code required for a different sim in a branded phone?

Is your sim from TMOBILE?
[Venue Pro General] Arcarsenal:
Since you still haven't got this sorted, have you considered the possibility that the previous owner had an exchange account set up on the phone and that the exchange administrator mandated a password/strict security settings on the device?

That doesn't really explain why the lock remains after a wipe though....
[Venue Pro General] alodar1:
His phone is not doing the things it should do. He claims he cannot hard reset it. So that makes me wonder about a few things.....but heck....he hasn't responded so maybe he got it working...
[Venue Pro General] sur3nd1p1ty:
Hey guys. So I might have bought this phone off of eBay. So, now I'm stuck with it. A hard reset with the SD card out doesn't reset. I mean...it kind of does. If I change the theme color or save wifi passwords, I turn off the phone and turn it back on and all the settings are gone. It doesn't go through the setup, everything is just gone. A hard reset followed by a battery pull and new SD card doesn't work either. I think the hard reset just isn't working. I don't know how hard resets work, but seeing how the phone doesn't remember themes and wifi passwords (even the time and date...it resets to the default wrong time) when I turn it off and on, I don't think it can remember that it's supposed to do a hard reset when it turns back on after the beginning of the restart after I click "Reset". Again, I have no idea if that's even how hard resets work. Well...sorry that was long. Any ideas? Am I just stuck with a broken phone? I can get it in to "Download Mode". Can I install a ROM that way? Thanks!
[Venue Pro General] Bongo2k:
Buy a new card, you can either go with the same card as the original Sandisk Class 4 8gb or buy a larger card.

Leave the original card in the phone and go to about > reset phone and reset it. Once the DELL logo appears take the battery out and put your new card in. Once that is done the phone will be reset fully.

This is the procedure when you replace the standard card included when you buy the phone off DELL.

I bought a new Venue Pro from Expansys and used this method to replace the included Sandisk 8GB card with a Sandisk 32GB card. Be careful about buying cheap 3rd party cards though.
[Venue Pro General] sur3nd1p1ty:
Thanks for your reply, but the original SD has a password on it. A reset without the SD and a battery pull and a new SD should work the same way, right? The point is to get the phone all ready to reset the phone and when it turns off to restart and reset the phone, you pull the battery and put the SD in to trick it into formatting that SD, right? I figure it would work the same without an SD card. I think the problem is in the actual reboot process. The phone can't seem to remember that it's supposed to do a hard reset.
[Venue Pro General] Bongo2k:
Pretty sure it should do, as long as it goes into the hard reset process then it should work the same as if there was a SDCard in it already.
[Venue Pro General] MJCS:
Put the device into update mode by starting the phone with power + camera + vol down then use the WP7 Update Cab Sender to send the stock rom
[Venue Pro General] sur3nd1p1ty:
Alright. Now we're getting somewhere. Okay. I found the stock cab for the Venue Pro. If I use http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1240455 this tool with that cab, will the phone be reset to its factory setting when I boot up? I am wondering if the PIN lock on the unlock screen will still be there after doing this. Thanks.
[Venue Pro General] MJCS:
Well try it and find out.
[Venue Pro General] Ualdayan:
I almost bought that one a few weeks ago, but after doing some researching I found out the Dell Venue Pro is a little more resistant to being wiped than other WP7 devices, and I didn't want to risk having a phone I couldn't use. Apparently on most there's a key combo you can do to cause a reset on boot, but not on the DVP. On the DVP you have to start the hard reset with the SD it's expecting to be there. (which you can't do because of the password)

The one thing I found though that I thought had potential was this thread. If he posts the Lightning Service tools there I think those have a very good chance of resetting it for you if that other tool doesn't reset it for you.

[Galaxy S I9000 Accessories] pavana:
Hi,

I have a Samsung I9000 international edition with a 3000 mAh accu (giving me ca. 3-4 days of time with ca. 20-30 min of talking or surfing). Now the problem is following:

I am moving from one country (Germany) for a period of time (at least 6 months) to another country (UK) where I will be getting a second SIM since I will be staying in the UK 4 days and spend the other 3 days in Germany. Unfortunately, my company will not cover phone/internet costs and I have to organize this on my own.

I would like to get a dual-sim-adapter as I intend to get a SIM in the UK in addition to my German SIM (Alice-O2) so that I could simply switch to the adequate SIM at the airport when I come to one of the two countries.

Has anybody experience with dual-sim adapters with I9000 and if so - which dual sim adapter would you recommend? I would prefer one that does not require cutting the SIM card(s).

Thanks for you help in advance.

Pavana

P.S. or should I just get a second android or any other flexible phone (not a cheap solution)?
[Galaxy S I9000 Accessories] Rofa1:
Wish I could help. I have a similar battery set-up and there was room for a no cut dual sim adaptor - so I bought a really cheap one - which did not work. I think I saw a posting somewhere that MagicSim will work????????

[Nook Color General] swoonef:
This is my first post here so hello everyone!

This is my first attempt to mod a nook but i have done a few iphone, wii, playstations, nintendo ds in the past so i have some experience.

I was able to successfully root my 1.2 NC with ManualNooter 4.5.6 and CWM 3.0.2.8. Everything went well and i booted up and was able to access everything with the zeam launcher.

Everytime it started i received a popup asking which launcher i wanted to use so i selected zeam. I must have selected the check box to not show it again because i cannot access the launcher anymore. I reloaded the firmware and my nook still launches to the default NC screen.

How can i get access to the root platform again?

Thank you everyone in advance!

[Xperia Arc General] TripNRaVeR:
I'm working on a 1-on-1 port for Xperia X10 from your phones. I want to make it really 100% the same. But just faster then yours ;)

Just kiddin about the last part.

Tough i need some opinions from some Arc owners about it. Is looking the same as yours? What things you know about stock Arc rom. Bugs? Pro's Cons? etc.

Maybe my bugfixes can be used on your phones to.

Here is an image of the upcoming release (just one thing needs to be fixed then its released)
[Xperia Arc General] Tarmitar:
Hello Trip=)

On screens your ROM looks like our on 100% exept a black bg in "about phone" screen.=)))

It's have darkblue color.

This is just mine opinion about Arc stock rom:

1.I have obtain Xperia Arc about month ago, and till now i don't have any bugs or FC.

2.It's really very fast, smooth and stable.

3.It's very comfortable(for me) for customizing(folders, vidgets, etc.)

4.At this time it's have only one big minus: it's become very glitchy and stock dialer looks like **** when we changed LCD Density.
[Xperia Arc General] Wolfbreak:
Isnt the Timescape Font bigger and the Settings with a Blue Background on your ARC.
[Xperia Arc General] Tarmitar:
Oops,yes, i look on my screen now, and see it's bigger(a little bit). But realy, Trip's font is better look=)
[Xperia Arc General] im_iceman:
Timescape widget IS black.. but yes.. that font's too small!

Camera - There's a problem with the HD video recording - voice and video gets out of sync.. if you've fixed that I'd be chuffed!

Can't zoom on camera for resolutions above 2Mpx

Can't zoom on video.

Have you got the 16m colours working on x10 (haven't checked in there since the start of april!!.. )

We're running on 2.3.3 rather than 2.3.2

no major problems really.. runs very well! but faster is always better..

oh and Trip - any chance you and the other devs over on X10 can help us out with creating a recovery method.. porting xrecovery seems the obvious one.. but a lot of people are talking about CWM too..

My daughters got the x10 now.. so if you can get this fully functional.. she'll be a happy girl!
[Xperia Arc General] Nimche:
Maybe You are, I am on 2.3.2

On 184 here, and definitely 2.3.2.
[Xperia Arc General] im_iceman:
That's rubbish aint it!!.. uploaded that via XDA app.....

here's the full version..

and for the record... I'm NOT trying to prove that I have android 2.3.3 just that my phone seems to think I have it!! I've not done anything to put 2.3.3 on there.
[Xperia Arc General] Nimche:
That is nice. I am not even sure differences between the two version but 2.3.3 is due by the end of May and the version is a bit different.
[Xperia Arc General] oXunknownXo:
You changed the battery icon and settings wallpaper, you could also do the same with the Android Version(which is very easy to do).

3.0.A.2.184 is not the 2.3.3 update, it's the 2.3.2 english version with the BBC player ;)

This is the true 2.3.3:
[Xperia Arc General] Buddha:
One quick question: how did you made a transparent settings? :O

It is possible to change it on x10 or just in Arc?
[Xperia Arc General] im_iceman:
figured this out.. apparently the google talk video implementation from modaco spoofs 2.3.3 to make it work... that's why it says 2.3.3..

I recently installed win 7 on hd2 and activated, everything was working including market but now i dont have 3g service only wifi

i tried setting the apn according to tmobile u.s. Settings and did not work .i tried using the app for the market connection set up and ran the app it said that the device has been set up .but no 3g either..PLUS I CANT SEND PICS IN MY TEXT MESSAGES .any ideas
[HD2 Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting an] dazza9075:
do what you have already tried but set it for a different network, restart, then change it back to your actual network, also try reseating your SIM card.

Worked for me, hope it works for you too!
[HD2 Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting an] olmec2012:
what type of apn setting do you recommend
[HD2 Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting an] dazza9075:
initially change it to anything other than your network

so, if i was on orange, i would change to O2, restart, then change it back to orange and restart

HTC tool should help with your settings or use google

so, google "T-Mobile US APN settings" without quotes if t mobile US was your network

i tried what you suggested no luck in the u.s. the sttings are suppose to be epc.tmobileus.com but still does not work
[HD2 Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting an] dazza9075:
long shot but try giving your SIM card a clean and stick it back in, another longshot is try installing WITHOUT an SD card, just curious if that is another one of the issues that can happen with a incompatible card, yeah i know the rest is working fine but try it and see, you never know!

other than that im running out of ideas...

I'd the same Problem on Nand Android so i decided to switch to win7. But same Problem here. If i have 3g enabled i got no Service at all. If i disable 3g i got Service and Data Connection begins to work.

See this Thread in Android section:

[HD2 Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting an] dazza9075:
start again,

flash a stock original ROM for your device, put it all the way back to WM6

you will need to SD card flash this ROM

then go through all the steps, HSPL, Radio, magldr then try WP7

when things dont add up its often best to start from scratch.
[HD2 Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting an] kruemel666:
I've done exactly that when i migrate from android to WP7. The only thing remains on the Phone was HSPL. And after all (installing MAGLDR and so on) the Problem persists. :(
[HD2 Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting an] dazza9075:
if hspl was still on then you didnt stock original ROM flash via SDcard

you need to download an official ROM from whoever sold the phone

doing that will remove hspl, reinstall the spl, radio and the ROM

make sure its an old ROM with a 1.4x SPL, then install hspl again, 2.08
[HD2 Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting an] kruemel666:
Ok I've done what you tell me.

I have a Device from Vodaphone Germany and i can't find any Rom with 1.4x. The oldest i found was 1.72.

I extracted the Rom and copy the LEOIMG to the sdcard. Power on Phone with Vol down and flashed the ROM with sdcard. Reboot the Phone and all cames up fine.

Power down Phone and wen't into SPL Mode, installed HSPL, updated Radio to 2.15.50.14 and installed MAGLDR 1.13.

After this i flashed my WP7 Rom and let it boot. Choose all my seetings in the wizzard. Enter my LiveID credentials and tapp on login. And after a few seconds i get the Message the Phone could not Connect!

But it seems this is another issue cause i got a big "H" and full Service.

Thank you very much!
[HD2 Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting an] dazza9075:
am i right in thinking that was different to the previous problem, where it would only connect with 3G disabled?

if thats the case that happened to me as well, i had to do the HTC connection wizard trick, change it to something else, restart, change it back again, restart

everytime i flash i have to do that which isnt too much of a pain
[G2 and Desire Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] makken85:
Hi guys, I've had a Bell-branded Desire Z (on AT&T's network) for some time now, but I've never gotten around to rooting / flashing a different ROM on it. Since I have some free time this weekend, I figure I'll finally tackle it. Have a few general questions though:

1) Is the method listed in the guide: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=928160 still the best method for rooting a desire Z? I've heard bad things about visionary, but every rooting method I've read seem to involve it in some way.

2) with S-OFF, am I free to flash any Desire Z / G2 ROM? or will only certain ROMs work with a Bell Desire Z? Any specific recommendation on ROMs? I'm planning on trying out CM7, then going from there

3) What is the best method for backing up my current image + a few other things (mostly contacts and SMS)? Titaniumbackup gets thrown around a lot, but I only have a handful of apps, and really would rather just redownload them then go through the trouble of backing them up

Thanks
[G2 and Desire Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] PatrickHuey:
http://wiki.cyanogenmod.com/index.php?title=TMobile_G2:_Rooting

that is going to be your safest way to root your vision. eventhough this is longer, there is a lot less chance of bricking your phone. the one you listed is very simple to do, but runs a high risk of turning your phone into a paper weight.

when you do have your phone completely s off, you now have every right to flash kernels, roms, and other things. you can find all of the things i just listed over in the development forum on the g2/desire z. download rom manager from the market. that allows you to back up your current rom, flash the latest recovery and so on. it just allows you to not have to manually install everything. it has the popular g2 roms under the "download rom section".

in terms of backing up everything, there are a few different options. every contact to save is linked to your gmail account, so whatever rom you flash and load youll always have those contacts coming with you. thats the beauty of google and gmail on a android device! but with rom manager, you can back up your current rom and image with that app and save it to your sd card. BEFORE YOU FLASH ANY ROM, OR BEGIN TO START TRYING OUT ROMS, BACK UP YOUR STOCK ROM. whenever i got my g2 when it first came out, i made a nandroid backup of my stock rom and i still have it. when i originally backed it up, i just named it "stock" and havent messed with it since. i just know that i have the stock image(it helps me sleep at night). jk, heh. for your text messages and stuff, download sms backup from the market and you can back everything up through that. all of the apps that you download, including the paid ones of course, travel with you between roms, etc.

i hope i helped ya out, and i wish you luck. if you have any other questions, just shoot me a private message!
