It's not my scheduled 30 days, I'm keeping the phone regardless. Either HTC will release or the excellent minds here at XDA, TeamWin, and all the rest will crack the phone.

In my perspective, the ONLY reason HTC is going to unlock the phone is because of the outcry caused by people who were passionate about owning/hacking their phone. When HTC said they were going to unlock, it changed many minds on which phone they were going to buy. It did for me, I was going to stick with T-Mobile otherwise.

HTC may have had the pre-order money, but what happens when these customers want a refund (hint: they give the money back). HTC will end up losing money on these people who return the phone, which I believe will cause HTC to speed up the process. If they don't meet the 30 days, some people will give up their phone, and everyone will go about their lives.

My main point is the irony of people cutting down those who are going to return their phone. They call them whiners, yet those whiners are the ones who influenced HTC to make a stance on unlocked phones.
[HTC EVO 3D] nate420:
Well in my defence I'm not cutting down the people that want to return them for any reason including they don't want to wait past the 30 day mark.. but I'm "cutting them down" for making several threads about it.. and then expecting people not to give opinions like. We don't care... HTC don't care...teamwin don't care...

And no HTC got there money asuron or whatever sprints insurance is called will get the returned phones because most will say they don't want it or lie and say its got problems... So then they get it and resell them/use them for exchanges on really bad phones..

Hench refurbs

So in the end... No one gets ****ed...and no one gives two ****s....

So back to my point... Why tell everyone what your gonna do with your phone... Return it.. stick your pecker on it... Eat with it . **** even marry it... It makes no sense to make thread after thread to tell everyone what your gonna do...

I don't make a thread everytime i take a **** and watch 3d movies to tell everyone how cool of a experience it was...

Main point do what you gotta do to make your self happy and don't tell everyone and expect a "thanks for sharing" comment

Thanks for sharing :D
[HTC EVO 3D] daneurysm:
Well, traditionally, people here valued others opinions. We are a small crowd of people with similar interests that at one point only attracted a nerdier, brainier crowd. The viewpoint of one was a valued commodity as was the feedback of another. Differing points of view are great things to take into consideration when making a decision you find important.

But something happened a few months ago and this place has degraded into a cesspool of impotent nerd-rage and rampant fanboism in search of confirmation of their own biases...or, in chan terms, "STOP LIKEING WHAT I DONT LIKE" and "STOP HATING WHAT I LIKE"....now it's a *****-fest. It doesn't matter what side of something you're on. It doesn't matter if you are attempting to illicit civilized feedback on an idea or opinion you have formed--you are going to be hated on, someone is going to be mad and then someone is going to post a thread telling everyone else how they hate your point of view...

...and then someone else will post a thread about how they hate the point of view of the guy that hates your point of view, ad infinitum.
[HTC EVO 3D] nate420:
Testosterone is flowing high in all of us. Or maybe its anticipation for s-off/root

I do rage a bit to much but try to just feel what everyone else is "feeling" and express all concerns and aspects of the issue or debate...

But we have no moderator in general section really and 9 posts threatening to return and bash the phone is getting a little redonkulous along with the nerd rage

[HTC EVO 3D] jadoe05:
BOOM!!!

That's exactly why I made that other thread I simply wanted to get opinions from others and hoped it would stay localized.
[HTC EVO 3D] daneurysm:
I'm willing to bet this is the reason behind all of it. I'm certainly guilty of it at times as well. It's hard not to be...so much hardware potential beyond, well, intentionally neutered by the very people who brought it life....and us, the most excited group on the planet for that very device...

If and when this thing gets opened up in a timely manner all of this, I'm sure, will die down to the civility I'm used to.
[HTC EVO 3D] mcmikecruz1:
How long did it take for the OG EVO to get full root ?
[HTC EVO 3D] nate420:
Not to keep up the trend of "bashing" for making threads to bash other threads or how ever you wanna look at it... But that doesn't really help your point.. you made a thread to keep what was already being discussed in another thread "contained"

Not to be a **** but i hope your not in any government position or army.. because moving the"contamination" is the last thing you do when you quarantine something :p

[HTC EVO 3D] mcmikecruz1:
Thanks didn't know that it was that quick
[HTC EVO 3D] jadoe05:
Lol. Dually noted. But my thread isn't about root. At the time I made my thread i had only seen the topic brought up twice. My thread is about whether or not people feel the phone is an upgrade.
[HTC EVO 3D] jadoe05:
Yea Google gave away the phone at its I/O showcase that year so developers had it before general release.
[HTC EVO 3D] daneurysm:
I rooted in the Radioshack parking lot at 6:30am...we had our first roms in days, I'm pretty sure I flashed my Fresh 2 or 3 days in. I could be wayyyyy of though, it's been a hell of a year :)
[HTC EVO 3D] mcmikecruz1:
How long before ? Just wondering what's a reasonable time frame to expect root .
[HTC EVO 3D] daneurysm:
...there is no ETA...for anything...ever....write that down.
[HTC EVO 3D] mcmikecruz1:
I understand that , the evo is what got me in this scene . I had know idea it was rooted that fast . is there our was there another phone you guys know of that had simular situation like the one we have now and if so what happened ?
[HTC EVO 3D] daneurysm:
Yeah. That's a very important fact to keep in mind. It's why I am so focused on root within 30 days. Back then, 1 year ago, Sprint had nothing decent for smartphones....the Hero was good--still with a cult following 2 going on 3 years later--but never a "superphone"....

But, the magical combo that resulted in the Evo4G having a phenomenal dev community was a combination of things:

1> Being given out at GoogleIO

2> Being rooted a week (2?) before release

3> Being the -only- "superphone" on Sprint, by far...and the only decent smartphone in the lineup

4> Kicking off 4.3" standard. No smartphone was anything like that up until then.

5> Cheap unlimited plan

6> HTC having a cult following

7> Being one of (the first?) true "Superphone" (sure Dinc, but, 4.3", cmon)

Notice that "4G" has nothing to do with that (IMHO)...and if you are familiar with Sprint 4G service you aren't shocked.

The timing and circumstance was pure coincidence, but perfect....

We will never have that luck again, so, if we lose developer support (from not being rooted) we will lose users....if we lose users (from not being rooted) we will lose developers...

EDIT: Other phones in this situation? Well, there have been tons of stories (most HTC) of "unrootable" phones being rooted shortly....though the HTC Droid Inc. took forever and never had quite the dev scene as the 4G, not even close....and ask DroidX owners about their "roms" which are barely skinned version of the stock rom, no custom kernels, no truly custom roms.

Unfortunately, until HTC comes through I think will will be in the same camp as the Dinc...def will be rooted, but, will take a while.
[HTC EVO 3D] Devi0124:
Nope.. not much of one.. Its the same phone.. doesn't run too much smoother.. Its like having a corvette with a governor.. All of the potential to be amazing and then nothing. I got it for my wife and its disappointing to say the least. My next upgrade was based on whether the SGS2 or Photon came out first but looks like Motorola is following HTC's lead "future devices will be unlocked but not this one" AND rumors that the SGS2 might not even be released here are really killing my high.
[HTC EVO 3D] nate420:
Way to bump a old ass useless thread... And HTC is unlocking the EVO 3d.... Where in the **** have you been?

[HTC Sensation] durps:
Just bought a Sensation off Craigslist and the seller told me they don't light up so he sold it to me for a good price. I can live with them not working, but it would be a plus if they worked. Can I send it to HTC or something?
[HTC Sensation] durps:
Oh wtf?! Just finished installing some apps and they randomly turned onnn! And they're that weird blue-ish color!Awesome.

I'm kinda color-blind so I don't officially know what color they are, but yeahhh.
[HTC Sensation] Solidus_n313:
lol an awesome craigslist find! what did you end up paying for the "damaged" unit? :P

EDIT: yeah, they light blueish white
[HTC Sensation] The_Biz:
You can send it to htc. The phone hasn't been out to long and they would more than likely warranty it for you. Go to their site and get the number.
[HTC Sensation] durps:
Well the guy had the ad for $450. (Most people have it on there for $475 to$500)

I then told him how that's too much with a phone with a defect and blah blah just to lower it, truthfully I didn't care whether they worked or not. Just didn't wanna shell out too much money for a device. Then he agreed with me and lowered it to $375.

I went away for the weekend and never replied and I guess he got desperate and sent me a text saying ok $340 and it's yours and now it's mine haha.

I think the price was decent, and what do you know, they turn on now. I just hope they stay on now LOL>
[HTC Sensation] Solidus_n313:
haha thats awesome, much less than i paid for mine, bnib @ US launch, but regardless, even if they dont light up anymore, you can still see them and you know where they are :P

[G2 and Desire Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] iamtimmah:
I have S-OFF. I have tried following the directions on: http://www.virtuousrom.com/2011/06/t-mobile-g2-users-migrating-to-desirez.html

In Bootloader it won't recognize the PC10IMG.zip file. I had checked the MD5 sum and it checks out perfectly, however it when it will not initialize the install of the file when it runs through its file scan.

Is there another way to install the DZ HBOOT or a way to force my G2 into recognizing the .zip file?

Thanks in advance.
[G2 and Desire Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] cjward23:
check the file is not named PC10IMG.zip.zip.
[G2 and Desire Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] iamtimmah:
Double checked that already. It's really quite frustrating, I've searched and searched and can't find out why.
[G2 and Desire Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] cjward23:
So you have the zip on the root of your sdcard?
[G2 and Desire Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] iamtimmah:
Yes sir, it will run through its file scan and it'll say its looking for the PC10IMG.zip file but says its not found.
[G2 and Desire Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] iamtimmah:
Is there a way to install the DZ HBOOT without having to use the PC10IMG.zip? That would make my life a heck of a lot easier.
[G2 and Desire Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] cjward23:
I believe you could flash the .img using fastboot, not sure of the exact command though
[G2 and Desire Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bradley_e_smith:
2 thoughts

1 - I am assuming it is on / on the sd card

2 - I am assuming that the filename case is exactly that (ie not all caps or all lowercase).
[G2 and Desire Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] desirezbilal:
wats your Hboot version?
[G2 and Desire Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] xsteven77x:
Yes there is a way using adb. Not sure where it's @ but i think you would just use the xda vision wiki, and substitute the desire hboot in place of eng h-boot in the article. Thats the way we flash the eng h-boot when we initially s-off our devices so i would think that it would work the same for this?
[G2 and Desire Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] iamtimmah:
My HBoot is 0.76.2000 (PC1010000).

I'll look into the Wiki and see what I can find. If you guys have any ideas let me know!
[G2 and Desire Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] iamtimmah:
Okay, problem solved! I was using a 2GB memory card. I followed GinoAMelone's advice in a different thread and switched to my 4GB card and it Bootloader magically recognizes the PC10IMG.zip. Thanks for all your help guys!

hi guys im not sure if this will work on all our galaxy s 4g's but this is how i fixed my imei problem.

step1. used odin v1.85 to flash back to KB5DeodexV21

step2. using root explorer i went into efs folder

step3. copied nv_data.bin

Step4. still in the same folder open root then afs and finally settings.

step5. paste nv_data.bin and reset the device :)

hope this helps! God Bless
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] juan16h:
this only works if you have it backed up, many of us dont have it backed up or we deleted it for whatever reason. im glad you fixed yours, i have to send it to tmobile
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] chino1987:
I didnt have a back up i flashed mine back to this rom and it restored the files since i had deleted them by mistake
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] RaverX3X:
why didnt u guys just snag the recovery image out of that folder open it extract the phones default backup of the iemi and copy it back it would have saved u all like a major headache.

What if you dont have the folder backed up? Will it still work with this method?

Here's the situation. It started a couple months ago where when I plug it in to charge, it'll say its charging but doesn't charge up fast. Maybe one percent per 15 minutes to half hour. I brought it in four times. Three times in one store. The first time, they charged it up and it charged up fast so they just said it could be me and have me a new battery. Second time, they have me a new charger. Third time then finally they replaced my phone but not with a new package, just a new phone. Could it have been a refurbished phone? Cause I'm still having the same problem! I've gone through three ebay batteries, two stock batteries, and 1 charger. I'm getting irritated with my phone help!
