Unbranding will not allow you to use another provider as far as I know, for that you need to have your phone SIM unlocked. There are a few site that you can get a code from as well as eBay, or fastgsm. I dont know who is best to get tis from as I bought my focus unlocked.
[Focus General] sicmadek:
well i was still gonna be with att, just wanted the $10 unlimited data
[Focus General] aksmurf:
If you already have the focus, what you could do is call att, tell them you no longer have your phone and that you need to change your plan. Tell them you have such and such phone (one that qualifies for their $10 plan.) and that's the plan you want. As far as I know they can't prove wat kind of phone you do or dont have
[Focus General] Funkadube:
I've been asking myself the same question. I think the $10 plan might be able to be done...but it's against terms and service. For some reason, they all like to stiff the smartphones and require a $30 payment @ AT&T anyway.

**I was wondering if unbranding would make certain programs for other phones work...like TouchXplorer
[Focus General] aksmurf:
Yeah the smartphone plan is supposed to make you like VIP status for speed but I doubt its really like that. I have a "rural unlimited" plan for th villages here in Alaska but can still stream video and even get full 3g in the major cities an towns. All unbranding will really do is supposedly make the updates come faster on the focus. I have post nodo waiting for me even though att is still testing. If you want to run touchXplorer you'll need to dev unlock or chevron your phone which you normally have to to unbrand.
[Focus General] pedalpete:
Pay as you go and unbranded

Not sure exactly what the $10 plan is.

I bought an AT&T Samsung Focus a while back and unlocked it to use for travelling. I'm Canadian, and have used the unlocked Focus with carrier Sims in Australia and Canada. But when I put my AT&T 'Go' pre-paid Sim card in the phone, it gives me no service.

I think AT&T does look at the model of phone connecting to their different services and blocks certain phones. I tried using AT&T pre-paid with my LG Quantum, and the phone service worked, but data access was blocked.

[Android Themes] 2Deluxe:
Hi there,

I've recently made a rather successful free theme for GoLauncher EX, and as a result had many requests to make a paid version that includes more content.

My question is, for some reason after duplicating my source material and changing the application name in all places the APK installs fine if copied over USB or Emailed, however when downloaded from the market it just shows up in GoLauncherEx's theme picker as 'loading...' and cannot be used.

I'm using a Galaxy S (i9000) and HTC Desire HD to test. I've tried uninstalling everything including GoLauncher Ex, restarting and in every combination I can think of, and for some reason when downloaded from the Market this APK just won't work within GoLauncher.

If anyone has had this problem or knows why it might be occurring, please please help!

I have scoured the internet and XDA but haven't been able to find an answer to this. I hope I am posting in the right place.

Thanks in advance, XDA!
[HTC Incredible S] Timbits93:
Just curious if anyone has this problem.

When i turn on the front facing camera, it defaults to Mirror Mode. However when i take it out of Mirror Mode, the image is upside down when held in a portrait position. However when it's held in a landscape mode, the image is fine.

What gives?!?! :confused:

Sorry if this has been mentioned before, didn't find anything in search specific to the Incredible S :rolleyes:
[HTC Incredible S] h.han:
Yes, same here!!

Also when I use app: Tango to do video call, my video on other devices(tested iphone4 and nexus s) is upside down as well. Tango mentioned it is their bug but since I have the same issue as OP, this may be a bug from HTC's gingerbread.

hey guys

i am running cm7 with franco's kernel v14.2.2

how can i uninstall franco's kernel and replace it back with default cm7 kernel by mik ??

please guide me

Regards
[Optimus One, P500, V General] twitch351:
Just reflash the rom that has that kernel in it, it will write over the kernel you flashed.

[Optimus One, P500, V General] sealtongue:
kernel flash

Kernels can be flashed over your existing kernel. Its procedure is same as rom flashing but make sure your new kernel is compatible with your rom. But who cares, just flash it after wiping cache and dalvik. Its betters if you have fallback point,so you must nandroid backup your current rom/kernel combination. Clockworkmod recovery 3.1.0.0 is your best starting point if you don't like typing in terminal.
[Optimus One, P500, V General] killerdude:
Yeah flash the rom once again. Dats it.

Hi all,

I was trying to install AccuWeather for Honeycomb and it's stuck at download.

I can no longer able to install any additional apps successfully (everything was working fine before I tried to download this app).

Killed Market services, reboot did not get rid of this continue AccuWeather download stuckiness.

I have CWM3.1.0.1 mod by solarnz installed with Primordial 3.1 rooted
[Eee Pad Transformer General] mike5065:
Not sure if ths is the solution, but some have had luck with clear data for DMClient, Download Manager, Downloads (in Running Services view).
[Eee Pad Transformer General] torrent_2004:
Can't seem to find DMClient, only Download Manager and Download.

Killed the latter 2 works. Thanks a bunch.
[Eee Pad Transformer General] miguelantonio:
Hi,i had this problem yesterday as well.Had to wait for the download to complete which can take ages.Then once its complete do a system reset and everything should be fine.Was able to download from market again.
[Eee Pad Transformer General] torrent_2004:
Hi,

The download stuck over night, definitely should not take that long.

Also, I should be able to download and install additional apps in parallel. In my case, additional apps completed download, but always installed unsuccessfully.

Any way, clear cache and force close of Download and Download Manager got rid of this problem.

Some thing is not quite right about my TF and Accuweather for honeycomb app - I tried it again today and it sure stuck again
[Eee Pad Transformer General] mattcoz:
I can't install it either, and I get the same thing with Pinball HD, I'm thinking it has something to do with the large size of the app.
[Eee Pad Transformer General] ChadAlanJackson:
That is my conclusion as well. I am having the same issue with Accuweather, Pinball HD, and Battleheart. I've tried the various fixes out there: The GTalk sign in method, symlinking the market cache directory to a directory on the SD card. All to no avail. Anyone have any other cogent ideas? I'd really like to be able to use these apps since I paid for them and all (ok, not Accuweather).
[T-Mobile LG G2x] Krucial:
I have had great speeds with my 4g network.......out of nowhere after I did a hard reset ofbthe early gingerbread release now on speedtest.net I am getting 21kbps and its taking ridiculously long to download anything. 4g is showing up as active tho. Anybody have an idea as to why it would slow down all of a sudden or had this problem before? Just wondering if its t mobiles network or something wrong with my phone. Someone else I know has the same phone and speedtest is giving them 7000+ kbps. SN: they are n the same area as me
[T-Mobile LG G2x] fcisco13:
Did you by any chance download over 5 gigs?? ever thought you might be throttled?? did you get tmo message saying you went over your download limit?? If you did then your download speeds are throttled to 56k until the billing cycle ends.

[T-Mobile LG G2x] besthijacker:
I get lucky to get 1.5mbps on this so called 4G. But hey, i get 1.5mbps from verizon too. Good riddance. And I live in new york.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] jacob808:
Don't know why your 4G is slow, but I'm in Hawaii and I too sometimes have horrible 4G connection...BUT, I have found an AWESOME solution for this and not will it only speed up your browsing, you will also extend your battery life and be able to multitask, with live active tabs that will keep streaming video and audio in one window while surfing on another!

The solution is download for free from the market Opera Mini 6 for the FASTEST mobile browsing and if you want Flash videos and live active tabs that will still stream while jumping between tabs download Opera Mobile 11.

Then you can disable 4G and opt only to use 2G, which increases your battery life by up to 4 times, because the Opera browsers renders the web pages server side, thereby speeding up the browsing experience and lessening the data that you would otherwise be using up on your limited or "unlimited" plan.

If you're not familiar with the Award winning Opera mini browser at first you might be appalled that it looks to basic and doesn't support flash (Opera Mobile does support flash videos), but after you learn and get used to the browsers, you'll find that it's the BEST, most refined browser for a mobile device. Period.

Don't forget to enable Turbo mode if you opt to use Opera Mobile, but Opera Mini is still by far the fastest mobile browser on the planet even if you only use 2G. Hope this helps with your slow connection and the G2x horrible battery life.

EDIT: besides setting network to only 2G and using the Opera mobile or mini browser to surf the web, another tweak for even longer battery life is to disable background data. As always you can always enable 4G and background data if you don't care about battery life by downloading the 2g-3g OnOff widget from the market to easily switch between 2g and 4g.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] Seanathan:
Sounds like you work for Opera. ;)
[T-Mobile LG G2x] fcisco13:

[T-Mobile LG G2x] phburks:
It would only be 2 gigs if its the new unlimited everything plan.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] phburks:
Check your data usage on your T-Mobile account online. Sounds like you might have been throttled due to reaching your data cap.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] WorldWide60:
I was thinking the same thing. damn.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] ce3jay:
Yeah, I can say so myself that 4G is slow. Using the speedtest app, I get .90/.70 on average. My wifes MT4G, gets an average of 5.60/1.0. I benched the phones on our kitchen table. Ran the speed tests 3 times on each phone. For signal strength, my G2x has 1-2 bars, while the MT4G has full bars.

Edit: and no, im not data throttled.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] asesino:
Who cares about Opera when we have Dolphin.How are they paying u for this?
[T-Mobile LG G2x] jacob808:
I've tried Dolphin, it's a nice fancy browser like the stock one and safari, heck I've tried alot of mobile browsers, but the flaw with these "high profile" browsers is that they're not true multitasking browsers.

Yeah they may pretend to look like how it does on a desktop, but the moment you try and open more than one window, you effectively make the others inactive. Not only that, but to really enjoy Dolphin, Skyfire, stock, etc. you NEED to have a good 4G connection, and we all know how much energy 4G sucks out of the battery.

Opera Mobile on the other hand has true desktop mutlitasking experience. You can open many "Windows" and say watch an interview on Youtube on one, then switch to another tab, like say XDA G2x forums and read up on recent updates, while still listening to the interview that's playing on the Youtube window, then when you get bored reading XDA, you can open a 3rd window and search for online radio, all while the other windows are alive and active. All this can be done using 2G because Opera renders pages on their server saving you data usage and giving you sufficient speed on "slower" connections, all this and saving you much needed battery life.

Don't get me wrong I love the other browsers, but until they come up with a fix for the horrible 4G network and update those "high profile" browsers to use less battery, Opera Mobile and Mini are the most well thought browsers meant for mobile use.

EDIT: no I don't work for Opera, I just feel that I've found the perfect solution at the moment for some "flaws" I've discovered with the G2x and Android battery demand, and I just wanted to help out the G2x community to love even more this powerhouse of a phone without having to have battery anxiety and still enjoy a full featured internet experience on a not so fast 4G network.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] Krucial:
Lol found out t mobile just throttled me......gay
[T-Mobile LG G2x] sarni84:
dude i found the stock browser to be fast enough lol i mean how much faster do u need
[T-Mobile LG G2x] phburks:
Its in the contract that they'll do that. There are plans with higher data caps.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] Seanathan:
Dude, you called it "award winning" browser. How do you NOT work for them? ;)

Besides, I've tried Opera and while it was great back in my Sony K750i tzones days, it is still decent for Android but not great. I prefer stock browser.
[Eee Pad Transformer General] canadianrider:
Is there any harm in downgrading from the leaked 3.1 to the latest 3.01?

I'm assuming I can just load the old firmware on the micro sd in the update folder and it will detect / downgrade like that?
[Eee Pad Transformer General] ayman07:
There's no harm in doing so.
[Eee Pad Transformer General] finalhit:
downgrading will leave your OS unstable with force closes every second or so. some say clearing data should fix it, but i dunno.

I don't need a signature.
[Eee Pad Transformer General] plvaulter06:
if you have root and CWM recovery, you can easily downgrade. Make sure you wipe data and clear cache when you are doing it though.

I have switched back and forth a couple of times, the 3.1 definitely works better on my tablet, however a new update is desperately needed. Battery life has been way worse for me with 3.1, and everything could still use some smoothing out.
[Eee Pad Transformer General] canadianrider:
yeah im just trying to fix a micro sd card docking issue but im starting to think it's a hardware problem and i might need to exchange.
[Eee Pad Transformer General] xformulax:
downgrade is easy, but backup your stuff (/data/media or /sdcard or /mnt/sdcard) because you WILL have to do a factory reset.
[Eee Pad Transformer General] canadianrider:
well unfortunatly I can't get my TF to read my micro sd for long enough to apply the update(or downgrade i guess).. it seems that it reads it for about 5-10 seconds and then somehow corrupts the data on the sd card.. because when i plug the sd back into the comp after taking it out of the TF some of the files have a little "male" symbol beside them and I can't delete them without formatting the sd card..
[HTC Inspire 4G] GuestK00450:
Before I begin, I already have the latest updates and everything on my phone. Also, all tests were done at full bars connected to HSPA+.

As stated in the title, I have never gotten over 1.5 MB/s in a Speedtest. I tried my phone out in 10 different parts of my city today (San Jose) and always stayed under 1.5 MB/s.

What could be causing this issue? The SIM card I am using is from an old phone (like 5 months old, was from a Captivate), could that be the reason why? The AT&T rep said that is the reason, but I don't know if that is fully correct, since HSPA is just an installment to 3G and it isn't real 4G like LTE is. So it should work, right?

What other troubleshooting steps should I take?
[HTC Inspire 4G] mudknot2005:
That's better then me, I usually get below 1mbs.

Att network just really isn't all that great, and they could also be working on the network in your area as well.
[HTC Inspire 4G] GuestK00450:
I got higher network speeds in the same areas using my iPhone 3GS!!! I got around 2 MB/s using my 3GS, and it just seemed to drop once I got my Inspire. My speeds have always been this low for the Inspire.
[HTC Inspire 4G] Carlrobling:
It will also depend on load on the network. I average 1.5 mb/s but late at night early morning i get better then 2 mb/s. Ive seen people post better speeds then that but haven't seen them myself personally. To many things could be playing into this. But i don't think its the phone or sim. I think its ATT.
[HTC Inspire 4G] biglittlegato:
Just got 2890 kbps down with 345 kbps up. Ping was 169ms. That's a lot faster than anything I got with my eXpo.
[HTC Inspire 4G] Scott_S:
I said "**** mobile data" a loooong time ago.

WiFi all the way, baby.

Between trying to figure out whether it's the phone, the rom, the radio, the ril, the build.prop, the area, the flock of birdies flying over head, or just good old ATT, you'll go nuts.

It is what it is.

Ideally, what you need to do, and it may not be possible for you now that you have the inspire, is test out your old phone, or at least borrow somebody's of the same model, side by side. Or another inspire, side by side. That'll at least answer a couple potential scenarios.

Get your SIM swapped at ATT. I've done that and it solved some issues. Sometimes they get goofy and need to be freshened up.

[Optimus One, P500, V General] amosng1:
Okay, I seriously had enough of people saying is this AmonRa or whatsoever. I Derived both files from here and decided to make those instructions/script easier for you to understand. This recovery covers most basic needs (wipe,backup,restore,flash etc.) , so if you are going to keep complaining about my thread title/contents, I'll be glad to remove this thread and leave you people to figure out how to install custom recovery

WARNING : Only for P500....

Many people tried installing custom recovery, but ended up hard resetting your phone wondering WTF went wrong right? Like you people I ended up resetting 4 times =.=ll so..now I've succeeded, I'm just gonna share how its done!

==============================================================

Files Needed :

recovery-RA-thunderg-2.2.1-GNM.img.zip

flash_image.zip

(Both downloadable from below)

==============================================================

The files preparation process:

1)Download both of them into your pc

2)extract both of them out.

3)Get the contents of both extracted folders and copy into the root of your sd card.

============================================================

The Actual Installation Process

1)Use either adb shell or Terminal Emulator(from the market) to install it

2)Enter the script below.

1.su
2.mount -o remount,rw -t yaffs2 /dev/block/mtdblock1 /system
3.cat /sdcard/flash_image > /system/bin/flash_image
4.chmod 755 /system/bin/flash_image
5.mv /system/etc/install-recovery.sh /system/etc/install-recovery.sh.bak
6.flash_image recovery /sdcard/recovery-RA-thunderg-2.2.1-GNM.img

3)If you have error for step 5. stating /system/etc/install-recovery.sh : file not found, do not panic, just move on to the next step.

4)If you have error for flash_image : 1:")" unexpected, make sure flash_image is a file, not an folder.

============================================================

Testing it Out.

1)If you only had the error for step 5 from all of the above and nothing else. Pray hard and type in : reboot recovery into your adb shell or terminal emulator.

2)If you had errors from steps other from step 5, go look at it again and think. DO NOT TAKE THE RISK!

3)I'm still a newbie coder so this thread may not be good but I derived the files from here but I wanted to make it less confusing for you people so if there is anything missing/wrong/you don't know/you wanna ask, just post a reply!

=============================================================
