Yes, I prepare it for that.

(especially the unlock method.)
[HD7 Windows Phone 7 Development] kemberdog:
im getting an error saying

error244 invalid model id

whats up with that???
[HD7 Windows Phone 7 Development] cina:
Can you share your tools/kitchen with us?

Thanks,

Cina.
[HD7 Windows Phone 7 Development] Perlnx:
Please use the custom SPL.

---------- Post added at 07:17 PM ---------- Previous post was at 07:13 PM ----------

Sure, I will share my methods soon.

(I use the old tools, but modified with a hex editor.)
[HD7 Windows Phone 7 Development] kemberdog:
im sorry what do you mean the custom spl?
[HD7 Windows Phone 7 Development] Perlnx:
It is a custom bootloader,

It will allow you to flash to any type of the custom rom.

All information for you need please visit this thread.
[HD7 Windows Phone 7 Development] kemberdog:
??? im already hspl'd, is there something else on there im missing?
[HD7 Windows Phone 7 Development] Perlnx:
Please recheck the SPL in the Tri-Color screen,

Some of update via Zune will override your SPL so you need to re-flash your HSPL again.

If the bootloader is H/RSPL, the RUU will pass the model checking.

(If not, try to revert back OSPL and re-flash HSPL again.)
[HD7 Windows Phone 7 Development] Clksk8:
OK so here is a good question i have the leaked football ROM (mango) on my hd7 now when t mobile releases mango can i flash your ROM then update to mango from zune and then i will have a unlocked mango phone :):):confused:
[HD7 Windows Phone 7 Development] Perlnx:
You can flash my rom into the TMOUS HD7 device,

but the main system package is O2.

So you can update to mango after O2 release the update.

(anyway you can change or debrand the operator of your phone but I not recommend.)

And sure, after update your will have an unlocked mango phone by use the connection setup (and can use everytime if you got the re-lock).
[HD7 Windows Phone 7 Development] kemberdog:
yeah its still not working i dont know why i really want to try your rom :(
[HD7 Windows Phone 7 Development] Perlnx:
Umm... this is interesting.

Can you tell me what the device do you have HD7 or TMOUS HD7 ?

and the security unlock enable ?

(you can check this in the tri-color screen)

and try to test this rom [ROM]RUU_Schubert_O2_UK_3.04.206.01_Radio_5.66.09.21a_2 2.48.50.21_Signed

because the Model ID of both are same.
[HD7 Windows Phone 7 Development] kemberdog:
I'm on tmobile so I'm guessing i have a tmous hd7, and i didn't see anything about a security being on when i went to the try colored screen.
[HD7 Windows Phone 7 Development] Perlnx:
Okay I get it,

Your os is tmous and i guess we have the difference Model ID (MID).

By general, HD7 has the MID PD2910000 and the tmous HD7 has PD2911000.

So you need do flash via goldcard for move from current MID to general HD7,

because the HSPL can't help you to flash the other type of the MID (but help you to flash to the other type of Vendor ID).

This is only way right now, sorry about that.

My device is tmous too but i done a goldcard for a long time,

so I'll able to flash any type of rom for HD7 (O2, Telstra, Global etc..) without the problem.
[HD7 Windows Phone 7 Development] ginjamaka:
I will def flash this rom once, official mango comes out, I am currently on the RTM version. But I doubt it that i will recieve the official one if I stay RTM.
[HD7 Windows Phone 7 Development] bigboy38:
yes can this rom be put on hd7s from att ?
[HD7 Windows Phone 7 Development] Perlnx:
No you can't, It's for HD7.

's' didn't support, sorry about that.
[HD7 Windows Phone 7 Development] bigboy38:
could you look into making one for the hd7s for att pls?
[HD7 Windows Phone 7 Development] Perlnx:
I don't have the device to test,

so i don't know about the impact after update the rom.

now we're testing for Mozart in the Thai forum and we're getting problem about the update

because some of module change in the cooked rom.
[HD7 Windows Phone 7 Development] rdia:
Portuguese language you can put this rom? can you help me?
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] shook187:
Any buyers remorse? I for one so retreated upgrading my line and wished I waited a lousy month and a half more.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] jayv1717:
definitely, i got the 3d on launch date.. was hoping for more but i just don't have the same feeling i did when i got the evo 4g.. so i will be getting the epic touch, but i'll also keep my 3d for the hell of it..lol
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Pitnefor:
me did not like it

3d was not good

screen colors looked really bad

screen was tilted

bad viewing angles

bad camera

very meh phone

speed was not that great, the bionic was noticeably faster than it
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] jayv1717:
same way i feel, and i went in very open minded.. i gave it a huge chance hoping it would live up to the og evo but to no avail.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] shook187:
I'm just trying to figure a way I could land a epic touch. I have a OG epic and a 3D I'm sure one needs to be sold...decisions decisions
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] devgrp:
Some of you same guys will be saying the same thing about SG II when a newer better phone comes out lol. Some of you talking about the speed of the phone is slow. My Evo3d has never had a problem or any lag doing anything. Now if all you want to do is look at benchmarks and brag then I guess the SG II wins lol. But for day to day usage E3d runs fine. I'll take realistic looking colors vs over saturated colors where white look like yellow.

Not saying the SGII is a crappy phone, but I guarantee it will have its fair share of problems once the newness wears off lol
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Epix4G:
problems

I hate my 3d .... really sucks when you cant depend on the phone to stay on and just quit not responding so i can use it as an alarm ..... several times have had to reset phone because of not responding .... Evo 3d is a piece of junk ... they rushed it out and not even that fast quality control horrible at htc right now .
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Success100:
None here. Hated the 3d. It was a failure.. I wanted to love it but it had a few serious flaws I couldn't tolerate. Specifically the washed out screen and terrible reception

sent from my damn EPIC TOUCH 4G!!!!
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] sdc177:
I'm switching. Not happy with the 3D. Still skeptical of Samsung though.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] firmbiz94:
Yea I fins myself reading alot about this phone and I'm guessing I'm wanting it ..now like alot of other people I need to figure out a way to get rid of my e3d. To an ex 3d user ...is it worth the trouble of selling and paying the difference to get this phone? Is it really leaps and bounds better ? My phone functions fine so you guys saying the e3d sux ass and had problems need not answer

..I want honest opinions if it lived up to the hype ..also. wanted someone to compare the camera quality between the two
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] devgrp:
I think you should just go to sprint and try it out. I went into my local sprint store and they had one. I was waiting to be wowed but I was not. Now that does'nt mean its a bad phone, its just not for me. I played with it for about 15 mins. There are some things I like about it but overall I'm sticking with the e3d. For one sammy should've used a qHD screen. After using the the e3d screen everything things else looks way too big on screen.

My GF has the og evo and she's using her upgrade to get the SGII so I'll have more time to compare.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] daneurysm:
It had the EVO branding so I was sold. My EVO 4G is still getting rommed to death by it's new owner and I got to use it today after a few months, it's still a beast of a phone...

...so I figured the EVO3D, while a peculiar way to follow up the 4G, would be a fantastic (of odd) continuation of it's legacy.

I couldn't have been more let down. Nothing is sacred at HTC. The screen aspect ratio of the Evo3D is downright offensive to me. My phone spends most of it's time in portrait mode...sure the resolution made up the difference so far as on-screen data is concerned I'm always constantly irritated by the aesthetic displeasure it caused me....but I swallowed that one, times they are a changin', right?

The next was the wonky power button behavior...doesn't always turn it on right, sometimes you need a battery pull, sometimes you wake up to a green light a locked up phone and a dead battery all at the same time.

And then the coup de grace, the signal strength is noticeably weaker than my EVO 4G....and I waited for an updated radio...and the past two radios just made it worse. Then HTC dropped the ball on releasing the (complete) kernel source, it's taken forever for CM7 and I'm sure it's because of HTC no cooperating...all the while Samsung is shipping unlocked phones and hiring Cyanogen himself.

After the NS4G I got for a week or two between all of the EVO 3D's I REALLY TRIED TO LOVE I realized that it was actually a very good phone. My faith in Samsung renewed.

I tried to love the EVO 3D...but I'm not a hopeless fanboy enough to eat that much trash and call it delicious. The phone sucks. There, I said it. I tried....

...and that's without mentioning that the UI experience on the 1ghz single core NS4G is MUCH smoother than a heavily modded 1800mhz dual-core EVO 3D....

---------- Post added at 09:31 PM ---------- Previous post was at 09:28 PM ----------

I would agree with you more on that if it wasn't for the slew of random games and other apps that don't resize perfectly to the qHD. Sure, it IS the app's fault, but, the OS could handle it--and it doesn't yet...ICS I'm sure addresses this...but GB doesn't and I'm sick of waiting.

Will I be getting the Nexus Prime? Without a doubt...but I probably won't have a laundry list of reasons why the SGS2 sucked... I don't need to justify it, if I want it I get it. Period. The end. I would have been the same with the E3D if it didn't take so many opportunities to kick me while I was down.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] devgrp:
I dont know how so many people have problems with their e3d but other than a few hiccups my phone has been fine. And thats the number 1 reason I will not install any custom roms because they usually come with problems that we spend some much time trying to fix. I had the og evo and I use to install a lot of roms. With lots of roms there were problems. With the new sense theres no need for me to install any custom roms. Apart from a few tweaks and themes I'm good.

Everything works on my e3d and I get great battery life
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] BlueGoldAce:
The evo 3d is a great phone for most people...

I personally and switching to the epic 4g touch tomorrow, and giving the 3d to my fiancee.

I am pumped for it.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] daneurysm:
Honestly I think a lot of us got genuine duds...it seems almost all of us bought on release day. There was no prior platform-sister-model to the E3D. The EVO 4G had the Nexus1 that was nearly identical. The SGS2 has the entire worlds worth of SGS2s. The Shooter and Sensation were the first of that new platform.

But I'm on my 3rd E3D, though all still probably release day models, over the course of 3 months. I give up. I tried. I really did love the whole idea of the phone to start with.

So far as buggy roms goes it's usually pretty easy to tell genuinely buggy roms from solid roms with a few rare bugs...and the stock roms are not immune to bugs. I got more FC's on my bone-stock E3D than I ever got on a daily or RC of CM on my EVO 4G.

But to each their own. Though I've gotta ask, what are you doing here?
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] devgrp:
You may have gotten a dud bro. Stock roms are not immune but custome roms do mulitply the chance of more bugs. Only time I got a FC on my stock e3d is if I restore certain app from titanium backup. And I'm here because like most of your guys I love technology and gadgets, plus my GF is getting the SGII tomorrow so I'll be sticking around.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] stangdriverdoug:
Using the phones everyday I think they will be similar performance lol. The biggest difference will be in the screen lol.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Success100:
This phone stock blows a rooted and overclocked 3d out the water. I just switched from the 3d and its better times 10.

Better signal. Better screen...even at lower resolution ..exynos core is a BEAST..plays n64 games on emulator stock smoother than overclocked evo. Better cameras..better speakers...this thing screams dude. And most of all...its a GREAT PHONE before anything. Great call quality..stronger reception than the 3d. If your on the fence..jump man..it's worth it

sent from my damn EPIC TOUCH 4G!!!!
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] daneurysm:
Cool. No mal intent, honestly curious why someone who is a happy E3D owner would be here...now I know.

But, yeah, I think I got 3 (yes, three) duds...all HW001's, I'm sure that has everything to do with it. The 002's likely have a much lower failure rate and much higher tolerances.

I got FC's on every E3D I had from the music app on countless occasions, the youtube app all over the place, the browser....all reliably. In fact, until I flashed Synergy I was plagued by FC's. Again, I'm sure my hardware was at fault here.

FC's I can live with...it's no kernel panic, it's no blue screen and it happens fast and is absolved relatively fast (except for youtube which became unusable eventually...web-version, problem solved).

If the screen width (in portrait) fit my preference, if the battery life was phenomenal, if the signal strength/lock was good....any one of those...I could and would be able to completely ignore all of the things wrong with the device--and I haven't even begun. But sadly it was not to be.

Glad to have you on board either way.

---------- Post added at 10:55 PM ---------- Previous post was at 10:50 PM ----------

I know you...You know me...and you are saying what we both wanted to know: So it's true? Great signal strength/holding? Tower locking? higher roam-threshold?

I can't wait,.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] bbedward:
My biggest complaints about the evo 3d:

1. Camera Quality (in 2D and 3D), 2D pics were grainy and i could not get nice 3d effects unless i tried really hard in perfect light, etc. 3d Pictures were just a blur otherwise.

2. Meh screen

3. Dropped calls and poor reception, dropped calls in my house all the time, never did with my EVO 4g. Palm Pre reception is poor too, but still better than the E3d. EVO Shift is also very poor in my house, but better than the e3d

4. Battery life was significantly better than a stock evo (Of course, not nearly on par with EVO 4g + my savaged-zen kernel lol), I made it through a short day with minimal-moderate usage. But of course, it is likely because of the poor signal I had in my house. (I'd roam in my basement, with the OG evo i always had a signal)

That's about it, I returned it 22 days after launch day (when i got it)

It had good things too:

1. 3D was very cool, except when I took my own 3d pics/videos I couldnt get it to look right, but movies/games/etc were all very cool.

2. Sense 3.0 is usable, maybe even a little better. I still prefer AOSP, but I absolutely hated sense pre-3.0 and couldn't stand it.

3. Very quick phone, not GS2 quick, but miles ahead of the OG Evo and most phones

4. Felt better built than the OG evo. I liked the flush battery cover

Bottom line, I didn't feel it was worth an upgrade so I returned it. It's just personal preference. I skipped on the photon because of the dated tegra 2 and lack of developer support. I waited WAY longer than i wanted to on the ET4g but I'm finally getting it tomorrow and I'm excited about it.

Oh yea, I got mine on launch day right when they opened lol. I see all the people talking about random reboots and software glitches/hardware glitches. I never had any of that it was very stable, it just wasn't for me
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Success100:
Dude, in a nutshell..this thing makes calls and receives calls, sends and receives texts..in the SAME areas the 3d struggled to make or receive calls, or struggled with sending texts. I'm blown away by this thing.

Sure...I'd like to have qHD...but in the end...all the positives for this phone make up for it being wvga. And it STILL looks awesome.

dear HTC, from one of your biggest fanboys..

**** the 3D...

Y'all need to take some pointers from samsung..

And wait...I can run live wallpapers without my phone lagging AT ALL!!?? come on samsung...this is too sweet. Thanks samsung
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] JasonK75:
Awesome post! I love it! :D

I run a Sprint store and I cannot tell you how many 3Ds that come back during the 30 day satisfaction period. In my opinion, they should have skipped the 3D part.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] daneurysm:
I gotta ask, what are the most common reasons for return/complaints about the E3D?
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] VonLaserface:
Sold my 3vo on Wednesday to put up 1/2 the price of the SGSII at full retail.

I didn't hate the 3D but I have a fondness for Sasmsung. I traded my Epic for an Evo back in March and I missed the Amoled almost immediately. I had the Evo for maybe three weeks before I switched to a Nexus S. I picked up the Evo 3D right after launch and found myself missing the Nexus even though the 3D was such a powerhouse...

For whatever reason I prefer Samsung, even with their plasticky builds and seriously lacking updates.

I'll probably end up going with the Prime when it lands but I can't not get the SGSII.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] devgrp:
I actually prefer the build quality of the samsung phones because they are light and if they are dropped, they have a better chance of not shattering vs the heavier HTC phones. I never understood why people equate a heavier phone to a better build quality. I just dont trust sammy with timely updates
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] JohnCorleone:
Yeah, I actually took off my screen protecter months ago. I don't have a scratch on my Epic. People went swimming with it in their pocket and it still worked. Samsung has been good to me as far as build quality
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] madmax2k1:
I'm pretty happy with my EVO 3D except for the 3G speeds which I believe are a network issue. I will still check out the Epic Touch in person tomorrow, If I'm blown away, I will get one at full retail and keep my 3D.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] VonLaserface:
That's one thing I loved about the Nexus over the Evo. I never had a case heavier than a gel and it survived a number of lap-drops out of my truck and falls onto our bamboo flooring.

I never dropped my 3D or Evo in the short time I had them but I cannot imagine either would have taken a 3 foot+ fall onto cement and survived the same way the Nexus did.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] kawaski47:
I have dropped my OG EVO numerous times. The thing is a tank. It always dusted itself off and kept on trucking. Granted tho, due to its heft, it would explode with the battery and back cover flying in random directions lol
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] xalucardx:
after the horrible battery life in the evo 3d im considering on selling/trade mine and get an epic touch since the battery life in samsung devices its pretty good (at least on my galaxy tab and vibrant)
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Jbroad572:
Wow, I thought I was the only one on the 3d. It was very uninspiring. Sold mine already and going to pick up an epic tomorrow for first time. I hated the way the Epic felt, but maybe this one is more solid?

I feel like there's a field trip tomorrow and can't sleep. Now to decide where to pick it up. Sprint or BB... Wish someone sold it for $150 locally.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] xlGmanlx:
with this ET4G beast, i am glad i didn't jump ship to the 3D. The community is the wild west, not at all like the OG and the hardware was not overwhelming. Sammy has a winner here and i think the community is really going to get behind the ET4G!
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] nubsors:
I don't have buyers remorse, I just want both. Fortunately I convinced my wife to come over to sprint from Verizon. She will let me take her E4GT while she can take my 3D. Pretty awesome really. I will do some side by side comparisons and post the videos.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] MILH0U5E:
Just got back from Sprint and swapped my main line to the ET4G from the 3D... Things I hate about the 3D

- Side charger pain in ass to talk while charging

- camera button protrusion and stupid 3D switch

- poor signal

- having sense on the phone even though I don't use it (except lockscreen, I really like that lock)

Just from initial impressions of ET4G... WOW :eek: This think looks awesome! Can't wait to spend some real time personalizing it.

I have 14 days to change my mind, but I think the 3D is going to go up on EBay.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] boe:
I don't know how so many people on the 3D claim they have no problems. I'm not an HTC or Samsung fanboy but my last 4 Sprint phones were all HTC and they all worked great (except the diamond which I returned within 30 days). This will probably be my last HTC phone for a while - the phone sucks as a phone - great as a PDA - terrible as a phone. Dropped calls and wretched call quality. My 8 year old HTC 6700 or 6600 or whatever it was had much better call quality.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] awesomeindeed:
I like everything about this phone much more than I do on the Evo 3D. The SGS2 is just a better device, period. Lighter, better screen, nice build quality, excellent call quality, FAST (I'm not sure why but the E3D always felt sluggish to me).

I will be keeping this phone for sure.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] rb3:
Tried the evo 3d for my 30 days and returned it. Too many problems and even custom roms couldn't fix them. Just picked up my SGS2 and couldn't be happier.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] lionmane:
How do you just swap your E3D for the ET4G?
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] devgrp:
I'm having problems with my e3d signal and a couple dropped calls but thats due to the sprint network. I called them up and they say they are working on towers. Same thing with my GF og EVO. She just got the SGII so I'll be doing some test to how it goes.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] boe:
The work Sprint is doing on their towers is an upgrade to the EVO to rev B. Now I'm not saying that is the only work they are doing across the country but they are working on the towers throughout the country on this effort which will not improve voice signal. I have an HTC vogue on sprint - never drops calls (OK near the zyzyx exit on the way to Vegas where there is no signal for about 30 seconds through the mountain pass but other than that a rock solid phone for 4 years. I've dropped about 50 calls on my evo 3Ds (I'm on my 3rd) in the past 2 months and have had far more clients ask me to repeat myself on this phone than ever with my 4 year old phone. I'm looking forward to your opinion on the signal on the new Epic Touch 4G be it positive or negative as I have to get rid of this phone.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] daneurysm:
Well, I'm sure you remember me and Success100 being very vocal about our poor data speeds and inability to hold a signal a constant roaming and tower hopping...

I live in an old brick factory converted into lofts...the signal was doomed before cellular phones ever existed....I have not seen the roam indicator come on once yet in my apartment which has admittedly a marginal (at best) signal. I don't get broken up calls, haven't dropped a call...granted, I haven't placed many, but, it's all pretty awesome so far. I will keep everyone posted. I have 0% regret, there is no a bone in my body that is unsure of this purchase at all. I can't say that I ever felt the same about the E3D.

I'm thrilled. Very very thrilled. As is Success100.
