i did this, it did really wipe the phone, but it also unlocked it

stuck an att sim in and made phone call. no code generated I could see

but is verified unlocked.

Also I had an SH serial# and couldn't get the code using the method

from the OP,

CAN SOMEONE ELSE TRY THE FILE!?

ONE PERSON UNLOCKED WITH PG58DIAG.nbh!
[HTC Sensation] xl VipeR lx:
Pjjm what did u do to get it unlocked?!?!?!?

please share
[HTC Sensation] akamustang:
Going to try it now

EDIT: No dice, opened the dial and tried to call someone, it briefly showed "Out of service area" and the went to "Call ended" :(
[HTC Sensation] fuinhu:
hi, can you explain us what this file does? Is it reversible? :)
[HTC Sensation] sieempi:
Check this: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?p=16959286 (dedicated thread for the method - share your experiences)
[HTC Sensation] pjim:
I first tried the method in the OP, no code as was expected, SH serial.

I downloaded PG58DIAG.zip, extracted and placed the file on my sd card.

boot into bootloader and let it run. Gives an opportunity to run diag, did that

fun to watch but unproductive. Then gives an opportunity to pick display system info and reset s58 data, did that and pulled the battery to exit. (couldn't find the way out). Rebooted and it was as if a data wipe/ fresh install.

Tried a buddies ATT sim and got my own wife on the line. Restored my backup,

all is well.

The method in the OP should be tried first as it is less intrusive, this method does a data wipe.
[HTC Sensation] pjim:
yup! that's it. Worked nicely
[HTC Sensation] Dav22:
Yes,

http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=16938495&postcount=55
[HTC Sensation] xl VipeR lx:
So let me get this straight its working?

PG58DIAG? unlocks the sim but wipes data?

If so ill update post 1 and update thread title :D
[HTC Sensation] xboarder56:
yes its the method that the xtc clip uses to cid and sim unlock. Im pretty sure it also does the cid with sim unlock when you wipe data let me check

Ok Just cheecked and it will also do the CID: 11111111

and turn the lock flag off aka (sim unlock)
[HTC Sensation] pjim:
Update your thread but make they try the original method first.
[HTC Sensation] akamustang:
Aye, I still want to know if my NUC works

Just can't get the stupid prompt to appear
[HTC Sensation] skygear:
So do a nand backup then try the file... Should be able to restore your data then
[HTC Sensation] xl VipeR lx:
Updating now! so let me get this right

No XTC Clip is needed, you do not need super CID either.

you just run the file and it will do it?!?!?

Also which should users do.

Titanium backup

Nandroid Backup

or Both?

I havent used the file as im already unlocked so im not sure exactly what gets wiped
[HTC Sensation] pjim:
No clip, just run the file. it's a diagnostic program, that turns off the lock code requirement.

I just did a backup in CWM first.

Then the reset s58 data command does like a factory reset. All user data is lost.

After that do a restore from the backup. Much faster than titanium backup.
[HTC Sensation] xl VipeR lx:
never mind! Titanium backup it is, nand backup not needed

i put the file on my sd card to check it out, went to look at device information

ENDED UP WIPING THE BASTARD! ARGGHH.

MY CD CARD ALSO STOPPED WORKING EARLIER. WOULDNT OPEN AND KEPT ASKING TO FORMAT BEFORE I COULD USE!

SO CANT RESTORE USING TITANIUM BACKUP :O lol
[HTC Sensation] pjim:
you have to be careful. If you're fumbling around with the phone you could give the wrong command.:o

I don't know what happened to your card mine came out fine.
[HTC Sensation] pjim:
That's how it worked for me.
[HTC Sensation] skygear:
i always do a backup before I run commands/ do anything major on my devices
[HTC Sensation] pakraider:
The code worked! But, I lost all contact pictures, and they're not coming back... :s
[HTC Sensation] xl VipeR lx:
:$ you hsouldnt have lost the files, you sure your sd card is not bust like mine was
[HTC Sensation] xl VipeR lx:
I think a mod should sticky this!

Post 1 and Post 2 updated!
[HTC Sensation] mutiny:
Earlier when I said it didn't give me the code either, I actually did a clear S58 out of curiosity. To my dismay, I found out that it meant a wipe. Lol. And now, while I'm restoring everything, I read this thread to find out that it actually unlocked! Nice! It wasn't all for nothing, I guess.

I'm a happy camper.
[HTC Sensation] bone$:
worked like a champ! thanks [tmo sensation] took less than 5 mins..

happy camper yipee :)

btw: used method 2, method 1 shows date only
[HTC Sensation] xl VipeR lx:
woohoo. Dont forget to thank those involved!
[HTC Sensation] pakraider:
Yeah, SD is fine.. Btw I used the first method and grabbed the code out of the dump, put in a foreign SIM, entered the code, and switched back to my original SIM.
[HTC Sensation] xl VipeR lx:
/OFF TOPIC

I kept unsafely switching the sd card between phones to install files etc. never unmounted, just pulled out straight. Was trying to install custom bootloader and rom on my friends Desire. in the end it wouldn't recognize it in both phones and i was like crap, rebooted did everything but it wouldnt show up on the phone, recovery brought up error sd card not found..

Went to Rom manager, clicked partition card, it booted into recovery, told me it couldn't find the card its not mounted but its going to format and partition anyway, when it rebooted, sd card was working 29.5 GB free.
[HTC Sensation] statuzz:
if u follow the OP post u wont find obstacles on ur way to success..and always thanks the pp that makes this things possible :D
[HTC Sensation] xl VipeR lx:
Yes i know, i always try to make simple guides

Did the unlock work for you!
[HTC Sensation] skygear:
@viper - wheres my mention for TERMINAL EMULATOR ? messing with you of course~

how many people have given you their code and dumps for the "S" devices?
[HTC Sensation] xl VipeR lx:
Not many, YOUR RIGHT YOU DID MENTION TERMINAL EMULATOR!!!!! I forgot sorry! although it was possible
[HTC Sensation] nxt:
CID 1111111 is not necessary for Method 2.

Mine was S-OFF but NOT 11111111 and still worked Method 2.

Pretty weird though when I boot up, it asked me what my provider was (i put in an ATT sim), it asked if i was us cellular, vodafone, att, and 3 other choices. (I have a tmobile sensation) (during the setup wizard)
[HTC Sensation] skygear:
i was kidding. have you had a chance to compare the files? and search for their code in hex editor?
[HTC Sensation] xl VipeR lx:
Yes i found nothing. out of the ordinary, plus half of it is encoded.

so i gave up on it., but it doesn't matter now anyway. we got what we wanted, a guaranteed way of unlocking!
[HTC Sensation] fuinhu:
guys do the nandroid restore everything back?

i think we're messing with some things that can void the warranty
[HTC Sensation] skygear:
yep your right. I always preferred the less intrusive methods- i'm going to play with the security bits with one of mine and see what i come up with.
[HTC Sensation] skygear:
your funny! are you S-OFF? you did it already then(voided warranty) however if you follow the guide to s-off and s-on you'll be ok

in NONE of the carrier TOS does it have anything about sim unlocking will void the warranty. there are a few methods to do it. Paid( database inquiry) carrier( database inquiry) online server/client (calculates the code with info/algo) in person(reads code, or flashes a code, or flashes an unlocked file)
[HTC Sensation] xl VipeR lx:
You ever used System Restore on YOUR PC or Hibernate.

Think of Nandroid Backup as Hibernating, and Nandroid Restore as resuming from Hibernation!

NANDROID BACKUP - Backs up your phone, makes a copy of the whole **** on it at the time of the backup

NANDROID RESTORE - RESTORES everything from the Time of the backup.

Its like you never did anything to your phone!

Lol messing with warranty?? You already lost your warranty is you S-offed your Sensation.

you cannot use method 2 without S-off and Root anyway

OMG! will this guide void my warranty lmao, its already void with S-off, this guide can't be used without S-off lol

i rate you man, you just made my day!
[HTC Sensation] fuinhu:
i'll buy a code

the first sensation i've had was a vodafone spain locked, i've unlocked it with a code and the guys at store didnt complain about it, they gave me a new one
[HTC Sensation] fuinhu:
yeah, but the s-off is a reversible process, and this i dont know.

i think that the nandroid dont backup the whole thing, just the rom and the user data.

i think that the op should metion the warranty thing in the first post just in case

And this:

"Now you’re free to go! Bear in mind, though, in certain circumstances you will lose your data connectivity or network signal. You’ll just need to check your APN, network type etc."

this is for the two methods or just for the second?
[HTC Sensation] skygear:
hahahaha I tell you what, what kind of money you want to spend? 5-10-15-20? you figure it out and then .dump the file for me and I'll read the code back to you off your "HT" device... deal? then YOU didn't void it, in the sense of unlocking it. or call your carrier and ask them about their policy on unlocking it and warranty status
[HTC Sensation] xl VipeR lx:
NO NEED.

If I ring O2 right now and say i want to unlock my phone! and they charge me £10/$15 and give me a code. Does that Void my Warranty.

If HTC provided me with an unlock code or sold me an unlocked Sensation, Does that Void my Warranty

Absolutely not. EVERY SINGLE PERSON WHO USES THIS GUIDE, METHOD 2 WILL HAVE NO WARRANTY BECAUSE THEY CANNOT DO IT WITHOUT S-OFF.

THERE IS NO WAY THIS GUIDE WILL INVALIDATE WARRANTY FOR METHOD 1 USERS!

METHOD 2 USERS DON'T NEED TO WORRY, THEY ALREADY LOST THEIR WARRANTY WHEN THEY ROOTED USING THE S-OFF GUIDE!.

THERE IS NO WAY TO PROVE WHAT METHOD U USED TO UNLOCK AND IF YOU S-ON YOUR WARRANTY IS BACK even after S-ON!
[Milestone XT720 General] fernovaes:
I'm using the 2.2 rom Froyo Dexter. But so it could not do overclocking. When I use it setcpu a maximum of 720MHz and overclocked it up to the Milestone save the settings, but not active.

There's something I'm doing wrong? How do I run the overclock? I appreciate the help.
[Milestone XT720 General] Woody:
You need to download Milestone Overclock from the market. Install it, load module and set it. Good starter is 1000/66. Then open SetCPU and you can use that to save profiles to over/underclock depending on task. SetCPU alone will only overclock to you roms highest frequency. You need MSOC to push it past that point. Hence the "over".
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ckirkp79:
Ok, so I updated to the new Market version 3.0 (and then today the newest one) and I did a search for mp3 music download (as an example) it shows 1056 results at the top but at most only shows me 7 results and when I drag the screen down to try and get the rest of the results nothing else pops up.

Now on the older version pre 3.0 I had no issue seeing all the results. This goes for anything I try to search for...and it's not phone specific as my husbands Droid X2 has the same issue not showing all the results for the same search I done.

Is anyone else having this issue...is there something I am missing because I've looked in settings...I don't know how to fix it. I would like the new market so I can +1 the apps that I have or will download..but I need to be able to pick and choose from a variety and not only 7 apps.

Please help...and thanks in advance.

If I posted this in the wrong thread..I apologize I didn't know where I should ask this question since Google is not giving me any results to my question:(

[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Duiker101:
This seems to depend on what you search, "mp3 music download" gave me this error, "tap" di not, "mp2" and "mp4" did...

Yea i don't get errors but no matter what i search landscape or portrait its always 7 apps. Glad im not alone but its bugging me out.

Well i take that back just searched for tap and boom it auto refreshed at bottom of screen. I can live with not having mp3 results lol

But ball has almost 6000 results and i get at most fifty. Grr
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] lazerax:
Been noticing it too. At first I thought it was an issue with MIUI, which I'm running on an Incredible 2, but today I'm getting the same problem on a brand new, stock Moto Bionic. It's starting to piss me off. Searching for "Handcent SMS" said over 1,500 results, and showed me a grand total of 3 apps - two Handcent language add-ons (Chinese and Korean), and GO SMS. What the hell?

[Acer Iconia A500] camelfoo:
So i got a random update this morning on my a500.. I dont see anything different other than i cant get my wifi to work anymore.. Already tried doing the patch from acer and a hard reset.

:-\

Anyone else have this problem?
[Acer Iconia A500] gammaRascal:
It's unlikely anyone would have that issue - If the patch or a hard reset didn't fix WiFi connection issues (and it worked fine before that is) then I'd be chalking it up to either user error - or - the WiFi module **** the bed. The update may have just been coincidental.

Check your settings / don't install questionable apps.
[Acer Iconia A500] camelfoo:
It's definitely not user error. I'm having the same issue a lot of other people are having with the WiFi looping instead of connecting. Got it to connect last night. Took me a while.

Sent from my ADR6300
[Acer Iconia A500] hardslog:
Try to forget the network, perform a reset, try connecting again. If this doesn't work after the second try search the forums, people reported deleting a certain file that fixed the issue (had to root the tablet first though). This worked for me when I did my update a while a back and the wifi went haywire.
[Acer Iconia A500] bpivk:
There is also a wifi fix on Acer Support.
[Acer Iconia A500] camelfoo:
Already tried the patch n it didn't work. I got it to work by hitting the reset button during the "obtaining up address" part of the loop. Hopefully they fix this with the 3.2 update.

[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Dacian:
I was using the Oden one click gingerbread method and I did the first part and it flashed fine but when it rebooted it went to a charging icon, not the fugumod icon. So, like a moron I pulled the cord since I could not restart it like the tut said. I then booted it up and it went into the fugumod screen. So I tried the 3 button technique and it did not work, it goes to a charging screen. Now I can't get to recovery or Oden to recognize it, so I can't flash it back to stock. Am I really bricked? I can get to the Fugumod screen like the Oden tut said, so is there any way to get Oden to recognize it without the 3 button to get it to download mode? Please help, this is my Mom's phone, I flashed it due to her wifi not working and she needs it soon. Much appreciated.

I forgot to mention, the phone is not detected by my PC. I've used 3 different wires, oem, htc, and a blackberry and it doesn't show up in adb at all.

Looks like you have the button combination locked, try to build a jig, here is how u can do it (worked for me) http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=841512.

Did u try with vol - and power or vol+ and power? Also u can try removing the battery, plug the usb connected to the pc with odin open, hold vol - and vol + and insert the battery.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Dacian:
Yeah, I tried every way I saw on here, Up+Power, Down+Power, Up+Down+Power, plug battery in while holding up+down, plug battery while holding up, down, and power, plug in wire while holding up, down, and only press power, etc. I'll give the jig a shot, hopefully that will work.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Darkuso:
Should works, if you see signals of life jig must send you into download mode. Try to search how you can fix it just to be sure what are the steps that you must follow.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Dacian:
I tried making one from the instructions on here but the only response I got out of it was a charging screen for 2 seconds that disappeared, so I ended up buying one off of Amazon, it'll be here tomorrow and I'll let everyone know if it works or not. BTW, the title is sort of misleading, I am not blaming anyone for the brick, these things happen, I've been rooting phones since the G1, I know how it is.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] AdamOutler:
Don't propagate ignorance... This is a "JIG"..

It has every JIG mode available..

What you're talking about is a 301kohm jig. Technically refered to as a 301kohm Factory Mode Boot JIG Boot On.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Darkuso:
I just tried to help, sorry if i dont have the same technical experience than you.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bobbylx:
We've been calling the 3 resistor tool a jig since day one, seems perfectly fine to me.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] AdamOutler:
Since there are 6 it should be distinguished. We've worked hard to gain knowledge and talking ignorant once you are in the know is not acceptable. You can also use the 619kohm jig to access download mode via UART.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] AdamOutler:
A bit more on the "jig". JIG is a signal name. It is an "Output control signal driven by the FSA9280A/FSA9288A and used by the processor for factory test modes". There's several JIG modes.

Grab the "GalaxyS Hack Pack" and see the FSA9280 manual for more.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bobbylx:
It's not really big issue for me, I'll call whatever the proper name is. It's just that 95% of the users here have called the 301kohm version a "Jig" since it was introduced months ago. Until everyone has adopted the new terms, maybe cut them some slack.

By the way, I haven't been following your work since I've no dev, but just read through some of it. Very nice.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Dacian:
Ok, so the Jig didn't work. It just showed a charging icon like when I used my own Jig. It doesn't boot to anything, it pops up with the battery and then dies. Is this a hard brick then?

EDIT: I unplugged the battery for 20 seconds and replugged the jig, and it sent to download mode. Thanks for the help everyone, and I hope this helps someone else if it happens to them.

3. plug in usb (while holding up+down)

4. plug in battery (continue holding )

and it brings me in download mood
[Epic 4G Apps] FrankyFiggz27:
i tested out all the wifi tethering apps and this one was by FAR the best. Fastest speeds. Easily allows 4g tethering. compared to barnacle, wifi tether, and wireless tether, and its Noticeably faster. I only tried it cuz I couldn't get the sprint hotspot hack on my ROM. So if you're in this group, or even not (speeds are very very comparable, if not faster, than sprint hotspot), TRY IT OUT!

it is basically the same layout as wifi tether and a few others..but it doesnt need to activate sprint hotspot. whenever it did that for me i had serious issues. plus this one gives faster speeds
[Epic 4G Apps] JohnCorleone:
Yup, the old one would require a wipe cache/dalvik in order to use native Hotspot so it definately caused some conflict. Just ran YouTube and there was no freezing or lag

It did that for me a few times, too, but when I re-launched the app*, it worked.

*relaunched as in, immediately after it gave me the error and closed; if you're using the Hurricane ROM, you should also download Root Checker from the Market - for some reason, even though BusyBox was supposed to be installed, it wasn't and I had to download a separate installer to make it all work.

So if i keep my gps off i shouldnt worry about anything then?

what about when i do turn it on why does it want the permission to fine my gps what does it need to locate me gps info for?

just cause 250K have downloaded doesnt make it safe just maybe no one has cared or even bothered to see what permissions it ask for all they cared for was having wifi tethering
