[Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] andrewjrr:
I was just wondering if anyone has both mms and data working for an unlocked phone on rogers network. I'm running 7720 and I've tried playing around with the APN settings and so far only managed to get the data to work. I first added the APN, then tried tweaking settings in the Connection Settings to fill in separate data and mms settings but that didn't work. Any feedback is appreciated
[HTC EVO 3D] Sibley:
Does anyone have any problems with the stock gallery thumbnails?

Mine shows each small thumbnail as black and white and split in two, disjointed and then wrapping back round again.

Once I open a picture \ video they load fine but it makes finding pictures hard as you can't tell which is which.
[HTC EVO 3D] Sibley:
I probably wasn't very clear when writing that. The pictures show what I meant with my gallery... Anyone have any ideas?
[HTC EVO 3D] rhedgehog:
try unmounting the SD card in settings, and then restart the phone. That might force the gallery to rescan the SD card for images and refresh the thumbnails.

I would suggest using root explorer to clear the thumbnail cache, but i don;t know where it's stored...
[HTC EVO 3D] Sibley:
Tried unmounting the sd and also deleting the the thumbnail folder on the sd card. No luck :(

Someone must have come across this?!

Is there a way I can reinstall the stock app?
[Hero CDMA Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sudokux:
is it possible for a battery dead because of the heat generated by the phone itself?

i have my malfunctioned HERO200 experience stated in

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1260520

i replaced by a battery and it work well again...after a while, it gave me blackscreen again, the same experience as before...

both cases the batteries are "burning hot". so i guess that would be something wrong with the heat that caused the short circuit of the battery or sth like that...

i know nothing about electronics, so i wanna ask is it possible at all?

now i have my 3rd battery, not dead yet. what should i do?
[Hero CDMA Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] NineInchNails:
Get a new phone. Its not the batteries. They got rid of it to you probably because of that exact reason. Quit wasting money on batteries as its not the problem.

[HTC Sensation] alprk:
Hello,

Im having a problem on my sensation, where I cannot access google.com or the market. I can access all other application which use the web, but not these.

I was thinking its an APN issue but im not sure Any Ideas?
[HTC Sensation] matrixblue:
What error message are you getting? And what happens when you try to browse to other sites?
[HTC Sensation] alprk:
Was getting server not responding from google.com but all other sites working.

And connection error to the market
[HTC Sensation] matrixblue:
Seems like something is blocking Google. This happens over wifi or just on the mobile network?

Try tethering a PC to the mobile phone and see if you can access google.com through the phone's connection.

This will let us know if the problem is with the phone or the data connection itself.

If its the phone you can consider flashing it to factory settings. Are you on stock or do you have a custom ROM?
[HTC Sensation] alprk:
This is problem with my mobile network, not an issue on wifi.

I have issues with no data on 3g also, only works on H / 3g+.

This had been the same behavior on both stock and custom, currently running rev hd.

its seems to be an issue with 3 in UK or my settings...
[HTC Sensation] matrixblue:
Maybe your provider has google blocked????? That's a strange prospect though.

Were you able to try the tethering?
[HTC Sensation] MartyH32:
I had the same problem, internet seemed to hang and the load also, but doing a speed test i was getting 2mbs. Did not seem to make any sense.

Its the APN settings for 3. Im guessing the APN settings you have are what i had with the phone. APN "three.co.uk" try adding a new connection using "3internet" this solved my problem of being "filtered" by three.

Martyn
[HTC Sensation] alprk:
I tried tethering and the same thing.

When you say 3internet, is that a seperate APN and what are all the settings?

Thanks.
[HTC Sensation] ROLY5573:
I have the same problem with 3, since 17-09. No Google services are working, and 3 assured me, it is a Google issue. It is very annoying.
[HTC Sensation] MartyH32:
Create new apn settings with a name like "new three" just use APN as "3internet" leave the rest blank ie no password etc should work ok

[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Rydis:
Ok, so I have a stock 2.2 FW and I have really bad lag, especially with text messages. So I installed the OCLF from the market, installed the exttools, rooted the phone and did the lagfix v2. It didn't fix the lag. I still had the same exact problems as before. So others suggested using a ext4 kernal. However, my phone can't get into recovery or download mode. I have a phone I find out that will eventually have the shutdown problem. So I decided I would just trade the phone in.

However..the OCLF that has an unroot option..doesn't work for 2.2. So can't do this till I unroot. I thought about using the ADB Tools, but without a 2nd way to get into recovery/download, I didn't want to risk this.

Is there a different market app that can unroot since ryzes doesn't work? Also..any reason why the lag fixes wouldn't work at all? I mean..i get a text message..entire phone freezes for a good minute..recieve 2 back to back..yeah stuck for a while. Also..since I uninstalled the lagfix and ext tools..however..now I can't download any apps with error of insufficient space...I have 9 gigs free.

Anyone else have these sort of problems?

Appreciate the help, thanks!
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] studacris:
Uninstalling the "lagfix" does not convert the file system back to rfs it is still in ext2, which is really antiquated btw, that is why you are getting the insufficient space error.

I'm pretty sure Super one click will un root you, it isn't an app, its a pc based program so you would plug your phone in via usb and unroot.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Rydis:
So how do you covert back? I UN did lag fix undid root undid ext tools but still have space problem.

I will try super oneclick. Was hoping to do through phone so could exchange today. The lag is really awful and making phone not able to unstall apps or save pictures wasnt good fix anyway :/.Curious as to why lag fix didn't work though.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] studacris:
that "lagfix" is super old. ext2 as compared to ext4 which is the current filesystem for "lagfix", that And the stock rom is pretty crappy also. and only goes up to android 2.2.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Rydis:
So think they would replace phone that is rooted if its in the O'Neil range of power problems?
[Xoom Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] gqstatus0685:
I had a replacement Xoom sent to me after my last Xoom took a nap and never woke up. Anyway I was downloading an app yesterday and I was using the browser and looking at the Market through the browser. When I clicked to download the app it said that I had a Verizon Xoom.

How can I tell? The Xoom I have doesn't say VZW on it. My Xoom is flashed to Moray so I don't know if there's something.
[Xoom Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] rohit3192:
Mine is from Sprint but it is also mentioned as Verizon Xoom in My market account.
[Xoom Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] gqstatus0685:
I originally purchased a WiFi only Xoom. Could it be they sent me a VZW one by mistake? Does that mean I can also send it in to get the 4G upgrade when available since I have the VZW Xoom? Do I even have a VZW Xoom? Did you confirm you have a Sprint Xoom?
[Xoom Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] rohit3192:
Mine is wi-fi only xoom

Not possible that you will be given 4g lte upgrade.4g lte upgrade is for Verizon 3g customers ONLY.

Mine bought from Sprint that's why I know it is from it(though on box there is no where sprint name/logo)

It seems anroid market classification is at fault.
[Xoom Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] gqstatus0685:
Oh ok. I see.
[Xoom Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] rohit3192:
OK just observed that while installing apps through PC android market there are two options Motorola Xoom and Verizon Motorola Xoom(VMX) for selecting device.

If you choose VMX then in your account it will be shown as VMX
[Xoom Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] playya:
Guys first thing is, did you root your Xoom:

If yes then if you also flashed one of the custom roms it uses a build.prop file from a VZW tablet. This is a text file which has information about your Xoom which is picked up by the market. Thus making the market think your have a VZW Xoom. My Xoom read Wifi Xoom prior to flashing any of the Tiamat roms

Now if no then I have no clue since if its stock your build.prop would read your exact model in the marketplace. Xoom Wifi, VZW Xoom etc....

Just as a side note some people were changing there build.prop files to try and trick the market into thinking they had Netflix compatible devices...

Hope that helps
[Xoom Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] gqstatus0685:

[Xoom Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] rohit3192:

[Acer Iconia A500] tjkriegel:
Some updates have to be done incrementally. Your first update was probably to take you to 3.1 (full update) where this new one is probably a minor update for bug fixes.

[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mihaicp:
Hi!

Is there any way that i can unlock my phone without rooting? I know there are sites that you can pay to give you the code by providing your IMEI.

I'm interested in a way that is free and without rooting.

I know, rooting can bring benefits but i'd rather not do it since my phone works brilliant the way it is. Plus i'm not interested (at the moment,at least)in flashing ROMs. I'm happy with stock :D

So, is there any way?

[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mihaicp:
1.Can you tell me please what are the downsides of rooting? I mean, if i decide to root it and leave it that way i'm more prome to get viruses or does it affect the phone performances or ... any "bad" thing?

2. If i root it, unlock it and then i want to un-root it back, will i have the same,exactly stock rom that i had before with no loss in phone's performance, stock apps etc?
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] donalgodon:
Downside number one: You void your warranty, technically.

There are really no other downsides in my view. If you grab a copy of your carrier ROM's kernel version, you can always flash back to it via Odin, and nobody will ever know that you rooted it, once you reset the custom binary counter, of course.

Rooting simply gives you administrative level control over your phone, which by rights, you should have had from the beginning. It's not going to make your phone explode, or give you a virus, etc.

THANK YOU! Im on linux and had to use my rubbishy windows machine to do bl unlock also QEMU might be better for USB as the android emulator runs it and that works fine
[Sony Ericsson XPERIA X10 Mini] ff0000.it:
It's been a (long) while since i don't use Qemu (maybe i could give it a chance ;-)... the annoying thing is that folks here at XDA isn't so Opensource-proned and don't tend to share their sources :-/, for this unlocking procedure you've to bow down to Windows for the s1tool and that's so-so-so-so-so-so-so-so-so boring... on the other hand if s1tool's sources is available, someone could port it to GNU/Linux in order to have a complete platform independent task... but that's only my point of view i don't want to mess up with great gifts we receive from XDA :-)

[Sony Ericsson XPERIA X10 Mini] ff0000.it:
Thanks mate,

in these day i'll see if it could be included in the_laser's package but first i've to be sure to be able to port s1tool or we stay with a foot on Windows and the other on GNU/Linux and that's not good :-P
[Sony Ericsson XPERIA X10 Mini] ambrosiosanchez:
And what about flashtool? Is there a linux alternative? because I'm using it through Virtualbox and it's a little bit annoying.

Sorry I can't try your script since I've already unlocked... but thanks anyway.
[Sony Ericsson XPERIA X10 Mini] ff0000.it:
You could use Flashtool in GNU/Linux with Mono, but i never try it (however that's another annoying point) :-)

I run the script on my unlocked phone and it worked fine (the_laser told me that i could run it how many times i want to) ;-)
[Sony Ericsson XPERIA X10 Mini] kissmyarch:
But guys flashtool is on java! So you run it by

java -jar flashtool.jar

I've done it before ;)

Oh and ff0000.it could you please include in your first post the download links of what we need to run with your script?

It's nice to have them all in one place rather than searching among several posts. Thanks!
[Sony Ericsson XPERIA X10 Mini] x10man:
i cant do a full unlock test but i can test on already unlocked if its ok and off topic i am able to do the monkey dance quite well btw there is a hilarious vid on utube called best of ballmer watch it. soooo funny LINUX FTW! btw what distro u on im either openSUSE or crunchbang depends on mood im in

Please advise. :eek:

[Xperia Play Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Dousan:
You can find a Rogers .ftf file and flash that with flashtool to restore your phone and get rid of root and back to as it was when you bought it.

If you have rooted with gingerbread and need to get rid of root you just open the app and press the unroot button. Just a heads up if you need it at some point in the future ;)

E: afaik the reset will be of the current Rom, hence there's no rogers app's cuz you flashed the UK one.
[Xperia Play Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ncaissie:
Thanks

Sorry for the noob questions but do I have to unroot before I flash it?

What do I use to flash it? Does it need the bootloader unlocked to do so?
[Xperia Play Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Cat_On_Droid:
Flash with the flashtool 2.9.1, you will loose root.

Don't think it requires an unlocked bootloader

I used the XDA App to post this, what did you use?
[Xperia Play Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Dousan:
You don't need an unlocked bootloader to use flashtool, it's like using SEUS or pc companion.

Download flashtool and unpack it on your desktop. Install drivers that comes with it (ggsetup.exe). Then download your .ftf file and place it in the folder that says 'firmware' that came with flashtool. Then hit the x10.exe. It will open a window, then hit flash and choose your FW. Before saying ok you have to tick 'wipe data', it's in the same window. Hit ok and follow instructions.

I have a sensation that was locked to orange, i S-Off'd and rooted, and un sim-locked but after the screen started playing up i decided to to unroot and S-On, in case of any warranty issues. When i S-On'd i flashed a stock HTC Europe ROM, if returning for repairs can i use this ROM or do i need to use the stock Orange ROM?

Also when device is in HBOOT, above Pyramid PVT Ship S-On RL it says ***LOCKED***, what does this mean? Does it mean it is not completely back to stock? I cannot see what it means as the device is no longer simlocked as it takes a Tmobile sim.

Thanks

Actually it means that you are back to stock. I take you still have super cid as you flashed different ruu? That would be an instant giveaway that you've tampered with your phone if they happen to check it.
