is there a way to get it an open nat type without having to connect it to my pc? I have a new 250g slim that my wife just bought the other day. So when i was fooling around and testing out wifi tethering i just directly tethered xbox to phone. But i get a moderate nat type.
[Verizon Droid Charge] xAudacityx:
Ya I also have the 250gb slim and if I tether directly to the box I get a mod NAT, but the only way I get an open NAT is through the PC after I changed my MTU size.

I have a Samsung Focus that I am trying to update. I am trying to follow this guide:

However, I don't understand this part:

4. Run Application Deployment, click on browse

--- for hTC phones, click on TouchXplorer.xap

--- for Omnia 7, click on WP7RootTools 0.5 alpha.xap

-- and click on open

Does my phone need to be unlocked to follow this? Should I do it with Chevron?
[Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] derausgewanderte:
if you are not unlocked and upgrade to Mango you will have a hard time unlocking it within Mango (and won't be able to sideload). Unlock in pre-NoDo and then carry the unlock over to NoDo and Mango following the guide. yes, people have successfully carried their Chevron unlock over to NoDo and then Mango. You need to make sure that it cannot relock when you connect to Zune. The tools listed allow you to make the reg changes to do that.
[Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] hedpe:
i thought I was reading somewhere that it's not possible to unlock past 7004 or something like that, which was before NoDo? (using Chevron)
[Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] derausgewanderte:
you are correct. I corrected my post. So you need to start with

So let me try to understand that, if my phone is unlocked now and when I update to mango it might might not unlock anymore, regardless if I got a SIM code from htc? I am new into this so I'm trying to get into it lol.......
[Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Kositch:
I have a question regarding the official Mango update for my HTC Trophy. I unlocked 7004 via Chevron, did some hacks for preventing it from being relocked (via this thread) and updated to 7392 (NoDo). Everything is OK, device is still unlocked.

What should I do for preventing my device being relocked during the ongoing official Mango update?

Is there already some solution, or will it be after the official Mango release will appear in Zune?
[Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] derausgewanderte:
I think we are talking about two different kinds of unlocking. I am referring to unlocking the phone for sideloading homebrew apps. If you upgrade to Mango you might not be able to sideload homebew apps that allow you to customize your phone until the gurus come up with a solution for Mango. Then there is SIM unlock to be able to use a device with a different SIM. I think that is what you are referring to. That will not change for you if you upgrade to Mango.

If you follow Ansar's tutorial you will see that there are preventions you can take to stay unlocked. You basically finished part A of his tutorial and can continue to part B with prerequisites for Mango upgrade.

B. MangoB2 Update Guide: How To Pass ChevronWP7 from OS 7392 [NoDo] to OS 7403 and 7712

In your case 7712 will be 7720.68 once it is released.

When you have all prerequisits finished from Ansar's post you stop there and are ready for official Mango once it comes out.

Reports from people who were NoDo unlocked and proceeded to Mango are mixed. Some kept the unlock some didn't. If it doesn't stay unlocked you have to have the files ready on the device to be able to unlock it without going back to NoDo. This is what Ansar's post explains. For the HTC you will put a CustClear.provxml file in place that you can deploy to unlock it.

This post also explains how to keep it unlocked. You follow the guide to the point at which it does the actual Mango upgrade. That is where you stop and wait for the official one.

But even if your device is locked in Mango you can go back to a NoDo restore point you created before you went to Mango. All explained in the guides/tutorials above.
[Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Kositch:
You think some of those who followed the Ansars guide or those who just upgraded from unlocked NoDo to Mango without any other hacks before update?

The second link is some other guide than Ansars, if I am right, I can choose which one to use?

Thanks for help!

Today I have succesfuly registered my ISIC student card with validity until december this year into the Microsoft Developer Account.

Now I have Chevron unlocked NoDo WP7 (HTC Trophy) with some modifications to prevent it from relocking during sync etc. I would like to unlock it via official Developer Account I now have.

1) If am not wrong - I should HR my phone, it will go to NoDo locked and then I can use application "Windows Phone Developer Registration" which will unlock my device and it will stay unlocked also after Mango update?

2) Is it possible by developer unlocked device to modify registry entries? I need to add one entry, so I will have Mango in my native language after update.

3) After one year, will it automatically lock my device and I will need to perform new ISIC validation, which will be in that day already expired?

4) If it will expire, will it hard reset or block my phone or will it stay in way it is, but it will not only be possible to side load xap's?

Thanks for answers!
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] TheDudeAbides:
Unfortunately, I live in a really bad Sprint coverage area and rely on the free Airave Sprint sent me. I cannot get my ET4G to connect to it. When I dial *99 it confirms I'm not covered by it. I have an old Sprint work phone that works just fine, so I know the Airave is working properly.

Has anyone been able to get their Epic Touch 4G on the Airave network??

Any fixes, per chance?
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] princessakiki:
You will probably have to reset your airave I had to do that. My Epic Touch worked but my boyfriend who received my Evo did not have the same luck. You just need to unplug it and let it sit for 30 seconds, replug and it should work. If that does not work go online and press some of the things dealing with airave . HTH

[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] TheDudeAbides:
Sprint Airave support says that with "newer" smartphones, Airave doesn't work. It never worked with my EVO either. But, I see others have their EVO working. I'll try the hard reset, update PRL, pull battery. But...stuck n Wi-Fi at home 'till they push something out. Unless, someone here has got it to work somehow.

Thanks for the prompt response everyone!! I'll let you know what I find out in 'bout an hour ;)
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] itbmd:
Call Airave support directly: 866-556-7310.

I had this happen when I got the Photon. If the reset does not work as others have mentioned, then call them. What eventually worked was a rep "sent an update" to my airave. After a power cycle, I had no issues since then. Hope they are able to resolve it.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] TheDudeAbides:
I have been in contact with Sprint Support. Since they couldn't or (wouldn't) fix it, the rep said that Airave does not support ET4G...and that he would "call me back" when they push out a "fix". LOL!

Still waiting on my blinking green lights.....
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] madsquabbles:
I'll have to check mine after I splice the gps wire. my daughter's friggin rabbit chewed the wire.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] nunyabiziz:
If its still flashing then its not the phone but maybe the Airave is still provisioning. How long has it been since it was first plugged in? Mine took the full 2 hours to provision before the lights went solid.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Pitnefor:
i cant even get my airwave to connect. mobile light keeps going amber.

and ive been on the phone for what feels like 8+ hours now (at random times)

and now they are saying that because their QoS test reads 81% that it must be my ISP and I need to call the ISP and have them fix it?!

I have comcast business internet (22/5) and i get the best pings and service ever.. i couldnt ask for better service from comcast

this sounds like bull **** to me
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] itbmd:
Wait a minute, you said you have an old Sprint phone that works right? So your Airave has the 3 lights showing as green? Or no? If you Airave isn't solid green, then any phone won't work.

Do you have a router? Try plugging the Airave directly into your modem and see if you can get it green. Then, plug it back in via your router. Sometimes, it may just need a direct connection to "get it going" and then its good. Mine is behind my router, so I know it's possible.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] TheDudeAbides:
Of course I wait for all 3 lights to stay a solid green before I try connecting.

Just to clarify, I have the AIRVANA which is the latest one from Sprint. And, I just got off the phone with them again. Here's what I'm trying now...

Settings > Wireless and Networks > Roaming > Roaming Mode > Sprint Only (default is Automatic) so, set to Sprint only.

And, when resetting your AIRVANA or Airave make sure you ALSO unplug your modem/router at the same time you reset your AIRVANA/Airave. That might be why you are getting flashing amber lights....

Keep ya posted when it's done initializing.

[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] itbmd:
I have the Airvana as well. I have mine set to Home only as well. So the old phone, is it the same number as the one on your ET4G? Or are they 2 separate numbers that you are trying to use simultaneously?

That sucks. How long have you had the device. Has it ever worked?
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] TheDudeAbides:
My "old phone" which is my work phone is an old Nextel flip phone and it works fine (when all three lights are solid) My EVO (which I no longer have) was the same number as my ET4G, both with no connection to the Airvana.

Sprint solution: They're sending me a new one. Ugh...

Guy was real nice though, called me back n' everything.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] TheDudeAbides:
Ok, here's the scoop. Sprint Guy just called to inform me of a 4 state outage. California being one of them. When I got home from work I hit the reset on my Airvana once, let it cycle, and now I'M BACK IN BUSINESS BABY! *99 confirms this. So far so good. Thanks to everyone who contributed to this thread :)
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] inacoma:
I have a new Galaxy S2 as well...the Airave works fine for voice, but borks all text messages (fails on outgoing, incoming never show up until I'm out of Airvana range). Anyone test their text messaging? My sprint Ticket is getting deeper and deeper within their tiers of support, but thinking of calling the airvana team next. Wife's Evo works fine, all green lights on Arivana.

im having the same exact problem. i just ended up leaving mine plugged out which defeats the purpose of having it
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] TheDudeAbides:
Now that I have all greens, i am able to get all texts; incoming and outgoing.

My only problem now is that my GPS says I'm somewhere 100miles away.

My weather widget states I'm 100miles away when I'm within coverage of the Airvana, but Google Maps pin-points my location just fine when I start up the app..

Hmmmm. I wonder if I have an emergency and have to call 911 that I will get connected to the E-Service 100 miles away, and not my local 911......?

Did you try calling the Airave support # I posted earlier? Any luck?

Be thankful it works at all. It NEVER worked on my TP2, but did work on the Photon. Just make sure your "service address" for Sprint is updated, and the 911 should go to that address by default.

If you are Listenin to any media it will lower the volume until its done beeping..I've reset the airwave and like I said data works but this drives me nuts ..Cant do anything with any sou d without it cutting out every 20 seconds..if I can't figure this out back to the 3d for me ..although I think the touch is better its not as significant as I thought and it worked fine with my evo 3d..I wish everything would go right for once
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] jaygraffix:
I seem to be having problems with the upload speed while connected to my airave "airvana". With my old phone the Epic 4G the downloads would be around 1500 KBPS and the uploads would be about 600 KBPS. But now that I have the E4GT my downloads are about 2000 KBPS and the uploads are only 75 KBPS... When I'm in a good coverage area away from home I've seen uploads speeds while connected to a sprint tower get up to 400 KBPS while connected to 3G. So why is the airave causing the slow down?? My wife's phone is an EPIC 4G and that works fine still on the airave. with upload speeds at 600 KBPS. I know it's not my internet connection cause I have 50 Megs down and 5 Megs up. I've reset this device many times hoping that would fix it....but it just won't work. I just have been using wifi to keep my fast speeds at home, but that can drain battery slightly more I think, and then I have to remember to turn it off when I leave home or it always tries to find wifi spots. Is there anyone else experiencing slow UPLOAD speeds while connected to their Airaves?
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] klub242:
I don't have a Sprint one, but when I had ATT's version this happened to me and it was normal.

Also, if I complain to customer support about (truthfully) having bad reception at home, will they give me one for free?
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] graffixnyc:
I joined sprint about 3 months ago. The first day my phones came I called and told them I didn't have good service and they sent me one for free with no monthly cost. I heard a lot of people called after and got denied so I'm not sure if tons of people called and they stopped giving them out for free or what.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] klub242:
Sounds like it's at least worth a try.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] eagercrow:
I called them 7 days ago and said I got horrible service at home and wanted a free airave. The lady said it was good I knew what I needed and transferred me to some other department. On Friday when I came back home it was sitting on my porch.

I wasn't lying about not getting service and a quick check of my bill would have confirmed I roam almost constantly when at home, but it didn't seem like they even looked at my account.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Bigjim1488:
Just ask nicely, if that doesn't work ask for a supervisor.

airave

My epic touch connected with no problems along with the evo 3d & photon. From all the tech support i have spoke w/ on the airave it only connects thru the numbers listed on the account but had a few friends over who were able to use the signal off the airave. Knowing Sprint for over 10 years you will get a different answer everytime you ask the same question.

[Epic 4G Android Development] ugothakd:
Is it possible to repack a .rfs file? It's easy to extract, but how do you repack?
[Epic 4G Android Development] chris41g:
You can't really repack them...

You can flash them to your, change them and redump them..

Or mount in linux and change... but becareful of permissions this way
[Epic 4G Android Development] ugothakd:
What do you mean by redump? Ill most likely try to change it by mounting in linux like you said...how could the permissions be messed up?
[Epic 4G Android Development] mkasick:
mount -ro remount /dev/block/stl9 /system
sync
cat /dev/block/stl9 > /sdcard/system_redump.img

The problem is that rfs is proprietary. The file system can only be properly mounted on the phone.

However, since rfs is a backwards-compatible extension of vfat, you can still mount an rfs image with the vfat driver on any Linux machine. This works well enough to grab some files off it. The problem is that regular vfat doesn't support POSIX permissions (owner, group, mode bits, etc.), those are implemented as a proprietary extension. So if you modify an rfs image under vfat, the permissions may end up being not what you expect them to be when mounted on the phone.

The annoying part about modifying rfs images is that, at least under Eclair, an rfs file system couldn't be loopback mounted. I don't know if they can be mounted on an mmcblkp? device or only over an stl one, or even if this limitation is still there.
[Epic 4G Android Development] chris41g:
I don't know about mounting the rfs image directly on the phone.. but I do it on debian.. and the rest of what he said is correct.. as soon as you start changing things.. the links, and permissions may start getting messed up because vfat doesn't support links or posix permissions.. so you will have to be careful with those sorts of things.. but for small carefully made changes it will work
[Epic 4G Android Development] ugothakd:
I get it...so redumping makes a .img file that can be (possibly) restored by cwm? So itd be a yaffs2 file system? Or would it still be an rfs file just renamed to .img.

Related to the permissions...if I wanted to say add a program like su or nano to a stock factoryfs.rfs, I would need to chmod the file in terminal emulator after making and odin'ing a tar file for it to work?
[Epic 4G Android Development] chris41g:
no.. rfs is an img regardless and its an rfs img.. he just put an img file extension, you would put an rfs extension and it would flash in odin.. i actually use a different method using dd, there is a tutorial in general i made called making an odin tar.. check it out..

you cant change the permissions when mounted because vfat doesnt support permissions.. you would need to flash it to the phone to change permissions, or.. add an initscript or something that does it..

i suggest leaving those types of things to the kernel though..
[Epic 4G Android Development] ugothakd:
I actually have...lol. I think I even thanked you for it. I'm thinking about ways that would help the et4g...they can't pull a stock kernel without root, and they're current method of rooting flashes a different kernel. If rooting can be done by odin'ing a slightly modified factoryfs.rfs, then they can get the kernel, then they hit the holy grail.
[Epic 4G Android Development] mkasick:
If I recall, the SGSII no longer uses rfs.
[Epic 4G Android Development] nubecoder:
So it seems someone needs to install a rooted kernel, install some stuff to the /system partition (su, busybox, bash, nano, recovery(?), whatever), and then dump the /system partition to an image.

Unless maybe I'm missing something...

It shouldn't matter what kernel you have installed while dumping /system.

Kind of off-topic, but still slightly relevant...

Does the Epic 4G Touch get fastboot like the Nexus S 4G did?

[EDIT]

Good point, from what I've been told it uses EXT4, so you should be able to mount and edit as much as you like without worry.
