That's how you claim to perceive it now and that's fine.

That's not how everyone perceived it.

Besides, getting around the data plan requirement is stealing in its own right.

Anyway, he has his answer.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Papa Smurf151:
How is it stealing if he doesn't want to have data on his phone except using wifi. Its not like he's looking for a way to get sprint data for free by rooting and such. Its like having ur phone on airplane mode til u get into a wifi hotspot area

free the dirk
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dukeoflbg:
Sounds legit to me. I don't see why you couldn't do this. I would call sprint and just ask. Worst they can say is no.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mattykinsx:
I actually put you on ignore but I'm on the computer and saw it.

Yes, that's exactly how I perceived it.

And with all due respect to XDA, we have a forum where a lot of users spend their time trying to get out of contracts over 50 cents, trying to scam carriers because they updated OTA and lost root, tethering (and torrenting on the tether) via root methods etc etc etc.

So you'll have to forgive me if I don't assume the best when people ask questions of this nature.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mattykinsx:
How would they manage that?

If you're connected to the network that includes a data connection.

Doesn't make sense.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Papa Smurf151:
U r correct when it comes to android and most other smartphones. If u want to use it as just a phone but no data they can't do it cause it is constantly using data in the background and can't be stopped. In theory it would be cool but in actuality its not possible.

[Droid 2 Global General] TJConnery:
Searching this forum is sometime a needle in a haystack, especially when you are looking for something basic. Can someone please point me to a link/page in this forum that gives basic step by step instructions on how to return my D2G to stock to accept the newest upgrades. I think they go something like this, but not sure.

Back up the entire image with Titanium

Obtain the stock sbf (2.4.29 in my case)

Rename to update.zip and copy to root dir on SD

Boot into recovery mode

First wipe cache/reset

Then run the update.zip

Is that it? Do I have to unroot or does the wipe fix that. Am I missing any steps?

Also still looking for the 2.4.33 SBF file if someone has that link.

Thanks.

EDIT: The best reference I found is here: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1060694

It is a bit more complex than I described above, but it will work.

I am upgrading to GB as we speak (about 2 hours of downloading.upgrading to get here!)

Never did find the 2.4.33 file, but just OTA'd it, no problem!

Hope this link helps someone else, there is a lot of this going around!

[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] m20120:
Another vote for MikG. It has been very stable for me. I am liking the updates as of late (up to 2.52 now). I am have been bouncing between the ChpSuey and Freedom kernels.

I also have MikG running on the wife's Evo but the is running the stock kernel. I have had an occasional boot loop (about once a week) on the custom kernels. She will not tolerate that and does not need the extra features that the custom kernels provide. MikG with the stock kernel has been perfect for her. No reboots at all and she is a pretty heavy user (uses about 10x the data that I do!).

[Eee Pad Transformer Accessories] dude2k5:
Well I got one, a little disappointed in the other one they had, so I was weary with this one. Overall, seems like it works pretty nicely. Although the top is heavy, so it leans back, which pulls the dock. But you can adjust it. Check out the pictures.

http://imgur.com/a/ZXR7c
[Eee Pad Transformer Accessories] kalkrishnan:
Review of its use without the dock...

Good pictures, dude. In addition, I took some pictures of its use without the dock (the 2-in-1 aspect of this product). Picture 1 shows the view closed up. Picture 2 shows how the same elastic corner straps that would hold the keyboard can now be used to hold the flap securely shut. Note that this is only needed when the keyboard is not in use, because with the keyboard, it is spring loaded to snap shut anyway. Picture 3 shows it open. Note that there is enough room in the spine to clip my Griffin stylus comfortably. 4,5 and 6 show the various slanted open positions. The last one is most suitable for typing on the on-screen keyboard.

All in all, a very nice looking unit. It is not exactly light, as it weighs about 14.4 oz. But, it looks to be well constructed, and very attractive looking. Before buying, I was somewhat worried if it looks "feminine", but in reality it is not at all that way. Looks like an elegant business leather folio suitable for all genders :-)

I've tried using this method on both stock froyo, and gb... neither worked. I ripped all the info, including the personal stuff. The regular system files were the normal sizes.. the movinand.bin was 4GBs.

I tool all the files and made one single tar file, then did the md5sum, etc... using cygwin, filesize was approx 4.4GB. When I tried to flash it back with odin it fails at the beginning.

I've been thinking too... would it be possible to tar/md5 each of the files individually? Then using each of the odin slots accordingly.

What about flashing a complete stock odin img first.. then flash my apps/data/info seperate.. with odin.

Suggestions:

The copy of the apk from someone else's phone should be copied to the correct folder. Set the permissions to match the other apks in that folder and restart phone. That should restore the app. Do the same with any matching odex file.

If using Titanium Backup and you get a copy of the backup from another phone put the backup file in the TB backup folder and see if you can restore it from the TB interface.

Probably not what you want to hear, but I believe that a factory reset will restore all of the original apps.

BTW - if you are using TB why aren't you freezing the app before you remove it? You can then see if it is needed for other services.

Making the AT&T contacts app required for operation of the phone contacts app really stinks. New low for AT&T.
