[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] AllanRSS:
I have a g1 that i recently returned to factory g1. I do not have an activated sim card and need to get past my registration screen. methods i have tried require a root but i am unaware of how to root a g1 without accessing android menus. If anyone could give me some pointers or a couple links i would greatly appreciate it.

[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] samandiriel:
You can register using wifi instead of over the air. This hack uses the fact that the stock RC29 ROM has an invisible terminal hiding behind the registration screen. I've used this myself, so I know it works.
[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] AllanRSS:
i have found this method but i had run into a problem i which i was told i did not have the athourity to access files. i believe that was while pushing busybox binary
[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] BeenAndroidized:
Do you have a friend who have that service? You can borrow the SIM card to activate your G1.

wifi-the best option....or use someone else's data service????

nothing else, basically!!!
[Thunderbolt General] Robertjm:
Hi all,

Having a bit of a problem right now. I decided to take the jump and flash a custom ROM on my Thundebolt, and settled on GING3R3DTH3ORY V6.2 DKS Rom

In preparation for installing that I downloaded the new 627 radio. Went ahead and flashed it and then rebooted. After the phone launches I have no data or cell connectivity (I can connect to wifi for what that's worth).

Seeing problems I went ahead and tried the MR2.5 radio as well. Still no connectivity. Here are the pertinent entries in Software info:

Baseband Version: unknown

Build Number: 1.13.605.7 CL341545 release-keys

Software number: 1.13.605.7

PRI version: Not Ready

PRL version: Not Ready

ERI version: Not Ready

Running Adrenalyne's Control Freak 2.0 kernel (2.6.32.21)

Current ROM is rooted Stock.

I'd say perhaps it was a bad download, but two different kernels are having problems so I'm slightly concerned. MD5 of the downloaded file is correct.

Any help is appreciated!

Robert
[Thunderbolt General] jschecter:
I think 1.13.605.7 is the old radio. Where did you download the 627 MR2?
[Thunderbolt General] Robertjm:
Was in the XDA thread for the ROM I'm planning to install:

[TH3ORYROM] [GB] GING3R3DTH3ORY V6.2 DreamKernel (DKS) [7/20/2011]

I went ahead and reflashed the radio from when I rooted the Stock ROM and it's working now. However, I'm at a quandry now and where I can get the updated radio from so I can flash the ROM.

Robert
[Thunderbolt General] jschecter:
I tried the link you sent me and the radio download might be bad b/c the md5 is "undefined" for me. Anyway, try this MD5 f38d27c32875778c9b586761d328a455 This is the file I used.

Let me know if it works for you.

EDIT: Baseband should say 1.39.00.0627r, 0.01.69.0625r if you have installed the OTA MR2 correctly.
[Thunderbolt General] Robertjm:
So do I need to install MR2 before MR2.5? If so, that would be an issue as I went directly from the basic one to 627r.

Robert
[Thunderbolt General] jschecter:
So the naming is kinda funny and don't let that trick you. MR2.5 is actually older than this one i just gave you (MR2 627). My link is the most recent thing Verizon has put out.

Just in case you're wondering, here's the story. A radio was leaked to xda and ppl started calling it MR2. A few weeks later another leak came out and ppl called it MR2.5. Verizon or HTC rejected both of these and finally released an official radio version 627 that got sent to every thunderbolt. Now people are calling this 627 one the real MR2.
[Thunderbolt General] Robertjm:
Thank you soooo much for explaining that. Yes, I was totally confused about what was what.

I'll give the one you linked to a try later when I get home.

Robert
[Thunderbolt General] Robertjm:
I just don't get it! It again returned me the unknown baseband and other notices just like the one I started the thread with using the file you sent me the link on.

MD5 checksum matched OK. I loaded it on my microSD card and named it the correct name. Powered phone off and then held vol down while powering back up.

It boots into the white HBOOT screen and gives me:

Parsing...[SD ZIP]

[1] MDM9K

[2]RADIO_VZ

Do you want to start update?

<VOL UP> Yes

<VOL DOWN> No

I select Yes and it starts the update, with a red progress bar along the upper right side while there's a pink Updating to the right of the items it is updating.

However, when the phone reboots there's no cell or data connection.

Sigh!!

Robert
[Thunderbolt General] jschecter:
Sounds like you put the radio on correctly. Have you already flashed the gingertheory rom in recovery?
[Thunderbolt General] Robertjm:
I gave that a shot a little while ago. Looks like the rooted stock ROM couldn't handle the OTA radio as the Gingertheory gives me connectivity! STRANGENESS!! I actually ended up downloading the latest leaked radio by way of themikmik.com and Cingy51o, but I'm wondering now if the other stuff would've worked too.

Thanks for your help. Still playing around with the new ROM. Not sure I like the lock screen. May just flash to something else in a few days.

Robert
[Thunderbolt General] jschecter:
Glad everything worked out for you :)
[Thunderbolt General] KonellAZ:
Question

I have tried a couple Rom's since rooting my TB. Got stuck a couple times in a boot loop. Do not know what went went wrong, but all has been good ever since... EXCEPT my LTE is weak and sometimes only 3g, couple times 1x. My radio is current and I have gone back to what I understand to my noob knowledge ROOTED MR2. My phone reads-

Android 2.2.1

Base 1.39.00.067r, 0.01.69.0625r

Kernal 2.6.32.21-g060a3a HTC-Kernal@18-2 #1

Build 1.70.605.0 CL343953 release keys

Software 1.70.605.0

Im still having these issues with my signal. I have read many threads and I thought well I use my LTE for everything... but i just looked only 12gb used and my cycle ends in a few days.. This because of possible throttle by VZW????? I called and asked them to read me in their contract where I as a valued customer would be throttled due to excessive LTE usage. She kinda chuckled and said there is no section and we do not restrict our customers unlike our competitors. I then asked about any know issues with TB's calling in from PHX. NONE

I'm a noob, but I know enough to play and have fun. Now.... Could I have fried something when it got stuck in the boot loop. The boot loop with white HTC screen occurred after a bad rom install on my part. It did it again when messing with DAS MAF settings. I was only able to get it back and running by HBOOT rooted RUU. any insight would help. Don't yell at me for being a NOOB if this problem is in another thread.. THANK YOU ALL... I live to learn new things and with everyone one here being so involved with their passions is AWSOME.. I need neighbors like YOU!
[Thunderbolt General] Robertjm:
Couple things. First, I'd suggest a new thread as your issue isn't the same as mine and will probably be missed by most people.

Regarding speeds, it might be any of several issues. First is environment. Are the local towers actually upgraded to LTE already? I am in Albany, which is deep in the heart of the LTE San Francisco Bay Area. However, they're having issues with the city in upgrading towers so I bounce between 4g, 3g and 1x when sitting in my bedroom, but a few houses away I get awesome solid 4g!

If your ROM has the option to set which frequency to use (LTE Only vs CDMA/LTE, CDMA Only) try switching to LTE Only.

Did you cook your phone? Probably not. Most phones are a LOT more robust than people think they are. Boot into Clockwork Mod Recovery and wipe cache andbDalvik Cache to see if that's helps.

Good Luck!!

[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] gabtug:
Hi all,

this is my first Android device and as such I have some very basic Qs that I am sure any one of you can answer! I have searched high and low for the answer, and after 2 hrs searching in vain I ask for your help!

1) How do you close an application natively (i.e. without a 'task killer') -> i.e. you want to EXIT it as you no longer need it and don't want it running in the background consuming power?

2) How do you natively view a list and switch to an application currently running/open in the background?

On my iTouch both these functions are done by pressing and holding the start button - but I am yet to come across what is the equivalent on my android device!

Thanks!
[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] krispy1:
to kill a app in the system u go to settings, then applications then manage applications then click the all tab and find the app click it then it will say force stop u click that

to switch apps for mulitasking u click the button on the bottom black bar left of the home button the one that looks like 2 squares layered it brings a list with thumbnails u can scroll it to see whats there and click to app switch
[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] gabtug:
Thanks for attempting to help me.

That button shows 'recently used apps' not currently opened apps.

i.e. if you use a task killer to kill all running apps, it will still show them when you push the button, much like 'recent files' on your PC. As such when I push that button I do not know which of them are opened at the moment and running in the background.

Hence I still don't know where to find a list to easily switch my currently opened apps :(

And in relation to killing them via the system menu, is it possible somehow to create a shortcut for it on the main window, so I don't need to go to that long navigation to close an app?

Thanks for your advise/help so far!
[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] krispy1:
lol you make no sense to his question look at his question

to switch between apps u must use the app switcher in honeycomb, other wise to see whats currently running in the background go to settings then applications then running. manually u can use a task manager to kill apps and of course its still gonna show those in the app switching list because its been cached there temporarily with the thumbnails.

there may also be apps that can currently tell you what apps are running aswell u should check that out

if your goal is too see what could be using up battery check your battery status through the about section in settings. other wise theres not much to worry as the 1gb ram is suffice

[Atrix 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] marko!:
You can if you did a backup if not just reflash a rom and start over.

Also you could look through you your system folder using ADB abd see if anything is missing

[Streak 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] soh_vet:
I got a new streak because my last one was acting up (warranty). The old one was rooted and had BB351. This new one came ATT Locked with BB347. Like a moron, i had the 351 Update.pkg on the sdcard and i tried updating via the new streak (holding down the power button and volumes buttons and selecting #2 update via sdcard).

now, no matter what i do, i get stuck at the logo. Any advice to just getting it back to normal?
[Streak 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Sc00terage:
you need to flash the 351 recovery img to use with the 351 install pkg, using the latest multirecovery flasher tool is the easiest way to do so, to save writing script. there are posts on how to do so in these forums
[Streak 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] cocaice2009:
meaning can't directly upgrade 347 to 354? or upgrade to 351 first, then do another upgrade to 354? I got the same issue here...
[Streak 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] marvin02:
If you are running 347 with stock 347 recovery you can try an OTA upgrade by downloading the 351 .pkg file direct to your phone and then tap on the DL notification in the notification tray. You should be on wifi to do this. You need a stock recovery to install the .pkg files. Checks are made to prevent installation of ROM from a different region. Since 347 and 351 are both 00 roms (retail unlocked) the upgrade from 347 to 351 may work. The advantage of this method is that you don't lose your settings and apps as you do when installing after booting into recovery and installing the package after it has been renamed to update.pkg.

You can't go directly (without using 354's recovery) from 351 to 354 because they are for different regions.

my phone resets itself. It gets loaded all the way to the main screen then when I go to click on something it locks up and rebootself. any help?!
[Thunderbolt General] CanesDrew:
Did you wipe EVERYTHING?
[Thunderbolt General] justavillain:
yes i did wipe everything 3 times. it seems the cpu hits a wall and just resets
[Thunderbolt General] CanesDrew:
Make sure to wipe dalvik cache and battery stats too.

If that doesn't work. Make sure to check your MD5 sums and do a fresh install.
[Thunderbolt General] justavillain:
i just did another fresh install. i let it sit for about 10 min or so now. if i get the problem ill check taht out
[Thunderbolt General] 00negative:
Format system.. And there is 1.1 just released too
[Thunderbolt General] voxigenboy:
wipe dalvik, cache/system, factory reset, format /system, wipe battery

i use that latest 6275 radio

the initial bootup where it keeps showing the droid pop up will do that for awhile. i was starting to think "god why!!!... whats wrong?!" and then it loaded.
[Thunderbolt General] greenjeans:
Try a0sp 1.1.1
[Thunderbolt General] justavillain:
i went to 1.1 and same problem. i went to run quadrent and it locks every time. ill try 1.1.1, im guessing he fixed the market problem
[Thunderbolt General] ohiog:
Hmm interesting, did you once you installed it (after wiping) let it sit for 10 min before rebooting it?
[Thunderbolt General] justavillain:
while still in clockwork recovery, wait 10 min? im not kne to rooting just the whole rom/kernel part.
[Thunderbolt General] saintfurion:
Nope in clockwork wipe, do a factory reset, wipe cache, then do dalvik and system too.

After that, flash your ROM and reboot once complete. While it is rebooting go find something to do. Basically, leave it alone for a few minutes (2-5 is usually sufficient). That allows the kernel/rom to settle.

For extra credit, before wiping, go ahead and use something like titanium backup to backup your apps. The you can restore your apps (not the system data though). Thats how I usually do it.
[Thunderbolt General] justavillain:
I did all that a few times now and nothing doing....it's starting to make me mad so I'll just flash back to CM7 and keep it that way.

Instructions and recovery are in the post, if you need any help post back or pm I'll check my phone when I'm at work in a bit. Also as a side note, have you gotten MMS to work? I got data up and running but MMS atm I can only receive and not send.
[Fascinate General] ghostv7142:
bro everything you need is here ! http://xdaforums.com/fascinate-android-development/ i havent tried this personally but going to oneday

p.s i also have a fascinate fully flashed to metro i did the data and web my self !

@junkboy0 i have the same issur i think it is because my metro apn isnt sticking ! you think a custom rom would help .. ?
[Fascinate General] Junkboy0:
No I tried many different roms. Apn do stick because I can make it so I can't receive anything as far as mms.
[Fascinate General] ghostv7142:
hmmm ok damn i guess ill stick to using gosms pro they have a mms client built in so you can send through there servers ? it only works for ppl who have full html browsing or some type of smart phone
[Fascinate General] Junkboy0:
Yeah, I too used go sms but I would really like to get it working natively .
[Fascinate General] veladem:
The EB01 is the only baseband that allows the settings to stick, I flash phones all day. I just haven't tried going from flashed to Custom ROM	also, only PAID CDMAWS works. I've tried everything and finally just paid $100 a month for the software. Btw, ty for the ROM's I haven't looked yet, I've done CWM, but never voodoo. If you want my settings I'll gladly post them. Everything on my phone works, talk, text, data web, mms, and metro apps from the handmark site.
[Fascinate General] veladem:
Both of the pages suggested come up as error 404 page not found.

Also even if your phone is fully flashed on the fassy, you must use either stock sms, or, a sms app that allows you to fill the mms settings.

I'll post the settings tomorrow, I'm very tired, long day at work.
[Fascinate General] Junkboy0:
That is extremely weird, as the url is correct........... Anyway just go to the android development section and look for evil fascinate rom thread. That has all the instructions you need.

[Fascinate General] Junkboy0:
IDK about kernel manager specifically but it shouldn't affect the flash I flashed the PBJ -50 and -100 kernels all the time when I was on EF, I believe EF 3.6 comes stock with the PBJ -50 kernel from imnuts.
[Fascinate General] Junkboy0:
Why would mdn@vzm3g.com work? On my APN I have set as mynumber@metropcs.net but aside from that and password, the mcc mnc and mmsc are the same.
[Fascinate General] veladem:
So if I flash a kernel it shouldn't, theoretically, mess with my Metro PCS radio flash?
[Fascinate General] Junkboy0:
Again I flashed kernels time and time again, never once did it mess with the actual flash. Just in the last week I have flashed the kernel about 9 times moving from roms. So no, but again I never user kenel manager always either Odin or CWM. I work grave so I'm about to go to bed but I'll check the thread when I wake up and thanks for the settings in advanced.
[Fascinate General] veladem:
Wait, it says I'll go from cwm, to voodoo, I know nothing about voodoo. Will this ROM work on EB01?
[Fascinate General] veladem:
Actually, if I go to this and get voodoo, how can I get back to cwm if necessary?
[Fascinate General] veladem:
Ohk, I did the pb&j voodoo kernel. AOSP 100V undervolt or whatever. My phone talks, its kool, but, creepy... Is the battery life really better? And, can I flash a ROM now? Like idk, EF?
[Fascinate General] Junkboy0:
I'm thinking you flashed the regular pbj kernel since imnuts stopped the aosp kernel a while back since the AOSP CM7 was coming. If you clicked on the link for kernel it just sends you to his post with his regular kernels and in the change;og he mentions No more AOSP kernels, waiting for CM7. If you are on the regular kernel just flash EF and EF will put you on a -50 pbj voodoo kernel when you flash it so after it boots you can flassh the -100 if you so wish.

Question before you do that could you do a apn back up and upload it so I could compare it to mine and try to get my mms fixed? please?
[Fascinate General] veladem:
For sure, anything to help out. I'm on my phone only tho... Can I somehow attach the file still?
[Fascinate General] veladem:
And I'm running voodoo for sure, I can tell cause the chick spoke to me, ;p. Btw, check out the kernel manager, it is where I got the AOSP PBJT 100V Undervolt.
[Fascinate General] Junkboy0:
Yeah I'm not sure of what to up load with, np wait till you're home. Again I never used kernel manager I'm one of those manual people that doesn't like that or rom manager much, too paranoid that something is gonna mess up. I'll check it out though. But regardless when you flash EF it should put you on the correct kernel but it will be only -50 not the -100.
[Fascinate General] veladem:
Fair enough, I've been looking st some weird glitches that EF has, is there possibly a better rom, maybe more stable, how is MIUI, cog, or like you said, CM7. And with CM7, is it non voodoo. And, I don't have a computer... I modded my phone so far, straight, from my phone...
[Fascinate General] Junkboy0:
The two big options are really EF and com rom for froyo, but if you move up to CM7/Miui/OMFGB the speed difference is pretty big, and you get much more efficient phone but the problems that you might run into WILL need a PC to Odin and fix in case anything goes wrong :( I think it's worth it if you're close to a pc but if you're not EF or Com rom.
[Fascinate General] veladem:
I gotta ask, is evil fascination oc'd? Or, oc able?
[Fascinate General] Junkboy0:
I don't think it's OC'd just runs much better, as far as OCing, idk I only strated OC'ing when I got to GB with CM7/Miui/OMFGB.
