Oh man, I guess that guy tried it and it worked for him and posted it here, that makes him a failure for sharing what he found. I personally never saw the other thread, it is not liked he bragged about finding it on his own or discredited anyone else. I cant believe that there is so much thread police here, seriously people need to chill out sometimes, this is info, he ain't making any money off it.

Obviously you never developed something helpfull for the community.

He didn't post original link... Or give credit to the person who found this "trick" originally..

And then he asked people to thank him....

It's not what he did wrong... It's the principle... And he fixed it so stop running your mouth like you have done anything ever in your life important to help the dev community, besides asking for ETA's

And yelling "help help I flashed this ROM and now my phone won't turn on"

Not to sound ungrateful or anything but isn't this the same trick we had for the original Evo to get better 3G & streaming? Except deleting everything you replaced then with "0.0.0.0" or something like that?

what do we consider slow

my speed test on evo 3d on 3g is

450 kb/sec download

320 kb/sec upload

and on 4g it was:

5 mb/sec dl

Sprint hates giving out MSL code

Just tried calling Sprint to obtain my MSL code and they gave me a hard time stating they cannot give me this since I am still under contract.

I asked them to refer to the contract (since I had mine on hand) to point to where it specifically states the MSL code is not able to be given out. I was then transferred to the manager who said the same thing about being under contract. I again countered with the statement as to where in the contract does it not allow me to receive this code. I was placed on hold for about 3 minutes and when the manager came back he said he will be sending an email to his managers for their decision since he is doesn't have the executive decision to give me this.

What a hassle. I have to wait for 2 days until I (maybe) get this code. SMH
[HTC EVO 3D] Compusmurf:
Either call back and try again but change your "social engineering technique" or go to the original post and get the MSL yourself. :)

[HTC EVO 3D] rugedraw:
They gave it to me without a hassle. I'd just try calling again and speaking to a different person.

Or trick them into giving it to you. Call and ask for technical support and tell them that you need to restore your data profile for whatever reason (slow data speeds, HTC email app not sycning, can't connect to 3G, etc.). In order to restore the data profile, the MSL is needed so they will have to give it to you.

MSL Reader

Has anyone tried MSL reader, its available on the android market? It works on the evo, so it should work on the 3D. My evo 3d arrived at home, but I'm at work, so I cannot try this out until tonight.

Also, once you make the changes, press the menu button, and commit changes. Phone should reboot, if I remember correctly. Go through the same process, and see if the changes stuck. I also would not leave the address blank. try 0.0.0.0.

Here is the post I used to change my Evo.

Didnt work for me

Tried this and fix and it didnt seem to work for me here in Denver. My 3G speed tests are horrible (i have yet to break the 100kbps down mark). I have 2 other friends on the Evo 3D that are experiencing the same slow network speeds, one of them spent 2 hours on the phone with advanced support with no resolution.

We have compared speed tests in the same location using the Evo, EVO 3D, Samsung Moment, and original Galaxy Tab. The Evo 3D was the only one with these horrid speeds.

Any other ideas?

Hi,

So I've recently did a "erase all data" reset (not factory reset) the other one..... on my phone

I didn't realize that I would lose all my contacts. Oh well..

I backed up my saved contacts that were on my SD card. However, I am now unable to sync my contacts' facebook profile picture to my contact picture. Only a few of them work.

I have the Facebook integration and Facebook account both in sync (which should i even use btw?)

How do I sync those picture?!?!

Hello friends!

I was prepared to drop a couple of D's get me a unlocked, sim-free Omnia 7 when I came across a little tidbit in some obscure forum; Marketplace is not available for all regions in the world!

Can someone confirm this please? I live in the Middle East - Dubai, to be more precise; and while the phone touches all the important bases, I am a little reluctant spending such a huge amount if it will be crippled.

Is there anyway to bypass or rectify the this problem - like selecting a different region or jailbreaking (chevron) it?

Thanks for all your help
[Omnia 7 General] kieboy:
Its ok, since it would be best to get hooked up in a marketplace full of updated apps and new submissions. get the omnia7, set up a US based live account, set you pc's system locale to US (for zune and music artist background to work) and then setup your brand new Omnia7!

If you don't want these changes, you might not be able to maximize WP7 and might not enjoy it.
[Omnia 7 General] drussthelegend:
Thanks for the reply!

Thanks for the reply!

Just to make sure I got it right; set up a new Windows Live Account - US based. Change the Location to US in the Control Panel.

... Do I need to change... say the time zone selected also???

All this before I install Zune, correct?

Anything else I should know?

I am guessing I can add my actual Gmail and Hotmail accounts later on in the phone? Sorry, This will be my first Windows Phone 7 phone, so I am a little leery about everything. :)

Does Zune installation require mandatory credit card details at any step? You know, for age verification or some such? (To date, I have never installed Zune in my PC so I am a somewhat iffy on things). Will that cause problems with my Location?

Lastly, I have to ask about is it worth it to root/jailbreak your WP7 phone? I mean what "awesome" feature does it unlock for you. I will be buying a phone without warranty anyway, so I there is some benefit it then I guess I can use the Chevron method before updating it...

Any more thought on this matter is quite welcome. I guess am a little nervous on spending so much money for this phone without any return option, so I want to make sure that everything will work out alright.

Unless u ran unrevoked forever and have s off forever than by running the update u will lose root. Even if ur s off forever u run the risk of losing root as well. At best u can flash one of the gb roms in the dev section.

[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Papa Smurf151:
If ur s on then ur not rooted. If u haven't taken the update then rerun unrevoked. If u have run update then u sol till new root method is found.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Papa Smurf151:
If I had to make a choice I'd go to the dev section and choose a rom that I liked and flashed that. Then u don't have to wireless bout it anymore. With root u unlock things but also can get alot better battery life and can customize things like percentage battery and different lock screeens and lots more. Just look around and test things out before u give up. Its not as hard as u think to get the hang of it.

unrevoked forever is what i used. my bad lol sorry.

we tried 3 but it wouldnt work for some reason so we did the forever.

[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Papa Smurf151:
If ur upgrading to 3vo then no big deal. Upon reading u might have to unroot phone to get update to work. If ur selling ur evo back to sprint when u get new phone then run the s on from unrevoked and then unroot and take update. If ur putting it on eBay or craigslist or selling to a friend u can unroot and leave it s off so other person can reroot if they want

Why take the update when there are optimized ROMs based on the update that work better and have in them than what you'll get from the OTA??
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] lovethyEVO:
Correct yourself and stop spreading wrong information.

S off does not mean you are rooted nor does it have any correlation with being rooted.

S off is the security flag which allows the bootloader to flash unsigned/unofficial images to the partitions.

An evo can be rooted and still have the security flag s on.

Even the installation instructions for unrevoked forever state you have to be rooted FIRST WITH A CUSTOM RECOVERY ALREADY INSTALLED in order to apply the unrevoked forever patch.

You should get your information straight before you start to put it out.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Papa Smurf151:
Wow post like this deserve to go in the shutter. I was helping the Guy out. If he was s on then there is more than a large percentage chance that he isn't rooted. Instead of getting technical I decided to help out in q way he'd understand. So quit being a douche.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] lovethyEVO:
I wasn't being a douche. You ever heard of constructive criticism? Op stated he was still rooted and didn't take the ota. He was wondering what would happen if he did. He was also unsure if he was s on or not which has nothing to do with being rooted. You gave wrong information about the security flag when you should have told him to verify if he is s off even though he has a rooted rom. If he was s on then you could have told him to flash unrevoked forever and then he can accept the ota if he wanted.

Helping is one thing, helping with wrong information is another.
