[7 Mozart General] monkeybutler1:
When I unlocked my Orange UK phone, it asked for a pin when I inserted my O2 sim card. This was when I entered the unlock code and after that it's been fine.

I don't see why an overseas SIM would be different, but one way round this would be to buy a UK PAYG sim from eBay or similar, then use that to unlock, then use your sim after that?
[7 Mozart General] polak87:
IT'S DONE :)

I was inserting sim card wrong way, when i had put it properly i was asked for unlock code.

I have my mango beta on it, i have to test many applications now :)

if someone have any questions about how to update to mango pls write ill try help.
[7 Mozart General] roby_tay:
Hello,

I'm new in WP7, I just got an HTC 7 Mozart, locked to Swiss Orange. So I wonder if is possible to unlock for free, or is there any specific tool for that. Any help would be appreciated.
[LG Optimus 2x] sierra77:
are there any known cases of call quality coming FROM optimus running cm7 not being very well? i have been calling people, they say they can hear me well, but the sound quality isnt good. They say the sound is kind of flat and low, like its low bitrate.

does anyone have a solution? :)
[LG Optimus 2x] Rusty!:
Try another radio/RIL
[LG Optimus 2x] sierra77:
k im on cm7 with 0405. done some quick reading and think i may try 0502. can i just flash the baseband or will it wipe my phone contents? will the correct ril be flashed along with the bb?
[LG Optimus 2x] Rusty!:
Baseband will wipe the phone + internal SD.

RIL must be added afterwards.
[LG Optimus 2x] TrymHansen:
That's a common misconception. Flashing BB does NOT wipe the internal SD.

::Trym
[LG Optimus 2x] sierra77:
backed up just to be sure. how do i add a ril when the bb is done?

edit: it wiped and my restore says succesful but it wont boot beyond lg logo...
[LG Optimus 2x] Rusty!:
Bet your recovery is pre-3.2.0.0? Boot image fails to restore... reflash CM, or get a newer recovery and restore just the boot image.

For RIL look for a post by Temasek, there is a Mediafire folder in his sig.
[LG Optimus 2x] sierra77:
Whatever I do I run into trouble. What I've done sofar is just re-install CM7 so i'm now back to that with 0405 BB.

Update recovery: not working. when I run the ZIP it gives errors

Flash BB 0502 after re-installing CM7: not working because the flashtool only shows three lines of activity. Then times out :(
[LG Optimus 2x] Chiefonline:
If you want to change your baseband, do a full backup with CWM. Keep an eye on your CWM version, it should be 3.2.x.x.

To flash BB you need a special tool, named SmartFlash. The easiest way is to follow the thread at MoDaCo

After finish flashing, restore your backup and flash RIL. Reboot.

Good luck.
[LG Optimus 2x] getro86:
I have the same problem, in some calls with CM7, it‘s imposible to have a conversation cause i heard the other person perfectly, but the other person don't understand anything what i say!. What BB do you recommend?, 218 or 622? I had have the 405 and now i have the 606

Thank you!

[LG Optimus 2x] sierra77:
After a few attempts i finally managed to flash from 405 to 502 and outgoing sound has improved. Just tried smartflash until it decided to work.

So sound is better, but there seems to be a delay in receiving the ringtone when dialing a number. The phone i'm calling is already ringing but the optimus is silent for maybe 5-7 seconds. That still bugs me. Havent done the ril yet maybe that will solve it.
[LG Optimus 2x] getro86:
Sierra77 finally do you continuous with the 502?, with this baseband the call quality is always better?, or do you continuos with the sound problems?

Enviado desde mi Optimus 2X usando Tapatalk
[LG Optimus 2x] sierra77:
Yes, 502 is still on the device and outgoing sound has improved noticably compared to 405.
[LG Optimus 2x] getro86:
Thank you, i will prove it!

[LG Optimus 2x] Omega89:
Remember to flash the corresponding RIL guys.

You should also calibrate your battery to get optimum batterylife :)

I had big problems with the 405 baseband but got it resolved with the 502...
[LG Optimus 2x] HaalloJa:
This is awesome. I also have trouble with people being unable to hear what I am saying. Now on CM7 77. I want to continue using the CMs, as the phone rebooted 10 times a day until nightly 34 or so got out.

What exactly did you do to get 502, and can one use 502 *and* continue using (and updating) CM7?

Thank you so much for possibly solving this major problem for me :) :)
[LG Optimus 2x] sierra77:
You can find 502 and flashguide here: http://android.modaco.com/topic/335494-29-jun-smartflash-stock-baseband-release-103521-20110622/

It works on CM7, I dont know about CM build updates, havent tried it since #66 is still working for me.
[Galaxy 3 General] Mohit12:
Okay, this was my first time flashing and it didn't go as well as I would have hoped.

I tried to flash InDroid 4.1 to my i5801 using Odin and I'm pretty sure I followed every step perfectly. Odin said it had flashed 6/6 files (all except boot.bin and sbl.bin which weren't included in the first place in .tar file that i downloaded) and it came to "close serial port and wait until rebooting".

But by now the phone had rebooted and I got the image of an android above whom was an exclamation mark inside a triangle. and there was a black background.

But I decided not to panic and wait till odin said "pass". Which it soon did, and that is when I unplugged my phone. Then I rebooted. After this I was in CWM where i got a few options, and i clicked on reboot. Then, the bloody cool InDroid starup screen came, with footballs and earth and the "InDroid v4" icon and what not. And it came twice, and thrice, and four times..

This is a boot loop, right? (noob question, but it is my first time) What do I do to get out of this?

I tried reflashing thrice, same result. Suggestions please?
[Galaxy 3 General] dilzo:
Its the boot animation the first boot takes long and the phone has nothing else to do than keep repeating the boot animation. Just wait if it's been stuck on the boot animation screen for more than 20mins then you should reflash.
[Galaxy 3 General] Mohanshbhr:
You wil get home screen within 10 minutes if not then flash stock jpm then indroid and after every flash wait atleast 10 min without being panic
[Galaxy 3 General] Mohit12:
I feel so stupid when I panic like this.. Worked. thanks!
[Galaxy 3 General] pflorin:
offcorse you panic when you pay for something specially if you cant afford another one.

its understandable .. just try to minimaze the panic .. usually is softbricking.. few unlucky ppl get hardbricks. make sure you alway flash roms without bootloader files in .tar archive.
[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] SciFlyer:
So, I was watching TV while checking out the apps on my Flyer when I came across the Connected Media app.

I'm scrolling through my photos in Connected Media when I looked up and there they were on the TV screen. :eek:

That was awesome!

I didn't have to futz with any settings - just open the app and go. Since the TV and the Flyer are on the same network, it just worked. How cool is that?

The same went for printing. The Flyer found my networked printer and it just started printing.

way cool HTC!
[Atrix 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] primeboss:
I am still on 2.2 froyo and waiting for the official gingerbread update. I remember reading that 2.3.4 ginger bread was supposed to improve battery life.

For the people who already jumped ship and upgraded to 2.3.4, do you guys see any significant battery changes? Good or Bad?
[Atrix 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ssmr2t:
Ever since 2.3.4 my battery sucks a lot!
[Atrix 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dLo GSR:
my battery's about the same, but the new battery info screen is pretty awesome
[Atrix 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Anthonok:
I've not noticed a difference

Sent via the power of a unicorn's horn.
[Atrix 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] josuetenista:
My battery lasts only 8 hours with 2.3.4 and when I was using 4.1.8.3 with gingerblur 4.5 it lasted almost 12 hours. Not to happy right now
[Atrix 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] k0sun7eash3d:
My battery has been pretty miserable after switching to 2.3.4. I'm a pretty heavy user, but before the switch, it usually lasted a whole day. Now, I'd be happy to get 10 hours. It's not so much of a problem for me, because I can usually get to an outlet to give it a bump charge during the day. I would definitely switch back to a 2.2 build if it wasn't for the CRT animation. That's probably my favorite addition to Android 2.3.
[Atrix 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] lhurtado:
This has been discussed before and some people found that battery life is improved by freezing some social apps.

The battery on my Atrix lasts about sixteen hours.
[Atrix 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] _kansei_:
My battery lats very long. I can go on an all day cycling trip, where I'm being gps tracked the whole time with a cycling app, location updated to the cloud on google latitude, checking in at new places I visit on foursquare and google+, taking and uploading photos along the way, some SMS, some email, etc, and I get home and the battery is at 60%.

On work days, it's off the charger at 7am, and when I go to bed around midnight it's still over 50%. WiFi on, Bluetooth on (and paired to a stereo headset to listen to music for a couple hours each day on the bus to Redmond), doing nothing at all to conserve battery.

I bought a spare battery because I just got the phone when the HKTW build leaked, and everyone was saying the battery life was atrocious. I take it with me when I'm going to be away from electricity all day, but have yet to even come close to needing it.
[Atrix 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Jonous:
Mine sucked bigtime whatever i tried, so i'm back to froyo :rolleyes:
[Atrix 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] joshyy_rey:
mine too. Was not good at all even after conditioning it
[Atrix 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] fernandoavc:
I've felt that the battery become a little crazy like if I reboot it shows more battery life than before... pretty messed up...
[Atrix 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] joshyy_rey:
+1 truth....
[Atrix 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] _kansei_:
To all of you experiencing horrendous battery life, did you actually look into what was consuming it? Seems like everyone loves to slam the battery life but no one says why it is so bad.
[Atrix 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] josuetenista:
Same happening to me. My battery shows 32% then I reboot the phone and shows 53%. Very weird
[Atrix 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] josuetenista:
Yes most battery consumption (52%) comee from phone idle than in second place is screen and the app that uses the most is pulse but only 7% and I spend lot of time using it. Reconsidering going back to 4.1.8.3
[Atrix 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] _kansei_:
One time I did see horrendous battery life, and it was just after I installed Google+ and enabled the auto upload feature. Unbeknownst to me, it scanned my SD card and was uploading everything, not just new images. Hours of the phone being warm in my pocket should have indicated something was up.

When I checked, it was "phone idle" taking up all the battery. Those seeing phone idle high up on the list, are you on baseband 01.97.00R? I know I wasn't initially, but then flashed it wondering about 4G speeds and such. Didn't improve my speeds, but I don't see phone idle up high on my list.
[Atrix 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] josuetenista:
I configured my Google+ instant upload feature only to start uploading when I plug the charger in and when I'm using wifi (when I get home). Currently using baseband 01.77.15P don't know what else could it be. I think its because the hktw is only a beta release
[Atrix 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] _kansei_:
definitely very beta. The key thing to take away from all the bugs people have discovered is that it is very inconsistent. Seems like no two people experience the same set of issues.

To the OP: give it a try on a day you'll be near power, and if the battery life is poor for you after doing tweaks (like Navalynt's mod which packages up a lot of the fixes people have made), go back to 2.2. Simple enough.
[Atrix 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] slowpc:
I have been running it as my main build and it works fine here for battery. Been flying around and this thing has been working great. Average of about 13 hours on some good usage (watching 1 hour video podcast and a lot of audio podcasts) wifi and gps on , streamed espn for an hour and a bunch more and still working great.

THe battery has been conditioned here and there and working good but I will always check the usage and see whats eating it and freeze those that I dont need. That always helps everyone.
[Atrix 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] BravoMotorola:
It's definitely worse.
[Atrix 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kenslaters:
My battery life sucks same as 1.57, where i was before upgrading to 2.3.4... never get more than 8 -10 hours, but i use the phone all day, receiving emails, xda, browsing, playing, maping with gps, talking a lot, and chating with whatsapp...
[Atrix 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mrshowtime:
battery life is horrible. I never had this bad battery life on my phone and i had the phone since it was released. I watched the imporvements from the ota's .26 to .57 to .83. I can unplug my phone at a full charge and literally not touch my phone at all and once the hour is up i'm already down to 90%. I froze all the social apps, my gmail is not syncing, i even disabled background data and the battery life is still the same. As others stated my phone idle is very high and i cant figure out why. Also when turning off the phone i have seen the same jumps in battery percentage and like them calibration and wiping battery stats has not worked either. The only reason i have not gone back to to froyo is because i like the rom otherwise.
[Atrix 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] divicos:
just reporting that i have phone idle on top of the list in the battery stats, even with stock froyo.. and battery life of my atrix is definitely not what i expected..

can get about the whole day, with an average use, and phone locked in 2g..

anyway, phone idle seems too much high.. never got these values in others Android phones, before..
[Atrix 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] vikramdhani:
May be the leaked rom has battery leak issues which might be fixed when the official release is here
[Atrix 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] beatphreek:
I'm on that 01.97.00R radio baseband and I'm seeing Phone Idle in second place under display (I might be addicted to tweetdeck...) Much higher than it was previously. I have all social Apps frozen and that seemed to help a bit. I also hat Thrutu installed and uninstalling that helped some. I could probably freeze my facebook apps (Friendcaster and Tweetdeck) and see if that helps, but I already have them to only synch on wifi.
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] nimdae:
Has anyone tried recording in HD for longer than a few minutes? I tried recording fireworks last night, which lasted for over 15 mins. I had no indications there were problems recording until I went to check the video before uploading somewhere. A little over 3 minutes in, the video freaked out, but the audio continued fine. After a couple more minutes the video continued, but it was out of sync with the audio.

Has anyone else seen this?

Kinda bummed about this because the quality wasn't too bad in the first few minutes. Would have been nice to get a good recording.
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] rm2011:
Same problem here. And it was with recording fireworks, too. Are you using the stock SD card? I have heard that that might be the cause of the problems.

[Optimus One, P500, V General] orsonbear:
Hi! I've a problem... It's impossible turn on my phone while connected to the PC's USB or charger. If I unplug the USB cable and plug in once again the phone stucks in recharge mode, no possibilities to turn it on. To turn on the phone I must unplug the cable, then can switch on the P500. It's a bug or a P500 feature?

Thanks in advance...

[Optimus One, P500, V General] theclaw37:
Was your phone's battery dead when you started charging? If yes, then you should let the phone charge and it will start up automatically. It DOES NOT start until it's charged to a minimum degree.
[Optimus One, P500, V General] orsonbear:
Battery has 60% charge yet, also at 90% or 100% battery charge the phone won't switch on if the USB cable is plugged in. When I unplug the cable the phone can be switched on. Strange...
[Optimus One, P500, V General] raylgo:
I noticed this lately on my phone too... I thought it was just signs of my phone's age until I saw that we have the same ROM and kernel o_0

I'm not sure which kernel version or ROM it started on since I've been trying out different ones in the past 2 months. I've had horrible battery life since trying out new things too...
[Optimus One, P500, V General] orsonbear:
Hi! I've founded the culprit! It's the Franco Kernel 18.1-CFS. I've installed the ROM LOL 1.4.2 wich have 2.6.32.39 Kernel by Paolo and the phone switched on with the usb cable plugged in. Then I replaced the kernel with 2.6.32.41 Franco Kernel V18.1 and the phone cannot switch on with the usb cable in. I think to report this to Franco by email. Cheers!
[Windows Phone 7 General] kieboy:
I have posted already on the Omnia section...hoping others can help me with this problem as well...

After a power surge, my Omnia hanged then when I rebooted, its now stuck at that Logo Screen. Did everything possible (hard reset, flash rom, go into recovery mode which gets stuck after zune reboots the phone....)

Used the windows support tool and I get this message: The phone is not in the 'Connect to PC' state. Please, make sure that you follow the instructions and your phone shows the 'Connect To PC' image

But I am on that Connect to pc state, but once I click on recover, I get a flash of codes then shows this message on top.

Attached is a pic of that flash message before the error above comes out.

Any help would be greatly appreciated :(

My Inspire is having issues, sometime last week my inspire started to act very strangly, Car Home or Car Panel is always opening up by itself and it is driving me crazy (bad pun I know).
[HTC Inspire 4G] gho5t82:
Ive found a solution. If you're rooted, go to TB and freeze HTC Location Service and Locations Launcher and also make sure in ur dock setting that auto launch car dock is unchecked. Freezing those 2 services in TB has prevented my screen from coming on by itself at random times thus creating huge battery issues. Try it and let me know.
[HTC Inspire 4G] a2r3f:
I'm running Ninja-0626 Rom and I didn't see HTC Location Service and Locations Launcher in my TB, so i was unable to freeze them. I also used Root Explorer to find and delete Car something from the app folder and the Car Panel Dock whatever is still popping up every couple seconds. Getting very frusterated right about now.

thanks for the help though.

if you press each email for a half second or so it will highlight, you can highlight multiple emails and then delete. even if you accidentally open one just hit the back button and they will all still be highlighted. quicker than deleting one at a time.

CHTS XML Files

The XML files for CHTS are lists of files that should be backed up. These can be any files in the "Windows" directory on your phone. These XML files can be added and removed from you phone and you can change the files listed in them as you see fit. These files can also be a great way to figure out what "manila" qtc files are used for the gaphics on most of the sense tabs. We spent a lot of time going through each tab so that we could layout these XML files, so they are also a great starting point for anyone who wants to skin sense.

An example of one section in the XML files is:

<AnalogClock

Description="Analog Clock"

SubDescription="Clockface and hands"

analogclock	="20F62884_manila"

hourHand	="0AB9C3F4_manila"

minuteHand	="4BDFBA48_manila"

secondHand	="2A87D392_manila"

ClockDot	="7126E342_manila"

analogclocknight	="3C87827D_manila"

hourHandnight	="5CCDF1ED_manila"

minuteHandnight	="5E305741_manila"

secondHandnight	="4B1CC00B_manila"

ClockDotnight	="6294D3BB_manila"

Co0kieAnalogClock_mode9	="1E1A6CCD_manila"

LuaScript_HomeAnalogClock	="1EC5924B_manila"

[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] osiedacz:
How to for the users.

A basic step by step of how I change my Layouts

1. Copy the XML files from post 1 to your Windows folder. This will add and update the XML files from the original CHTS install.

2. Perform a Baseline Save, a Full Sense Save and then save your current layout extended style before doing any switching. I usually do all three after each flash of my phone. This way I know that I can always go back to where I started.

3. Copy one of the pre-built themes from below to your _CHTScheduler folder on your Storage Card. Or, install your favorite theme cab files to change your phone.

4. Once these new theme files are on your phone, you can tweak this layout to what you like and then save it as a new Layout that will include all of your CHT settings as well.

Once you have a couple Layouts saved on your SD card, you can use SwitchGUI to change between them.

I will expand on these steps with some screen shots. Also, please give me some feedback and questions so I know what isn't clear. It is a bit tough to start writing, since I have been doing this so long I take for granted how easy it can be.

Also, if you have a theme you like and want me to either setup a folder for it or at least check to see if it is fully switchable, just post a link in this thread to the theme and I'll check it out!
