I have the same problem with 3.1.5

As soon as I uninstall the market update I'm back to 2.3.x and I managed to download an app without problems.

But then it got update to 3.1.5 again in the background and the next app wont install. It reports to less storage space, but there is plenty.

I already deleted market data but it doesn't help. Only market 2.3 works fine.
[HTC Sensation] LPChris47:
I hate to re-post and look like an annoying baby, but can somebody give me an idea as to what is the problem I'm experiencing?
[HTC Sensation] picachux:
The stock market that comes on the Sensation has yet to be updated. I had 3.0.27 and had the update pushed to me, So I'm guessing yes you will receive updates.
[HTC Sensation] mazook98:
Guys, you need to "disable" the marketupdater.apk (It's a system app) once you get whichever market you're happy with.

It won't auto-update anymore.

*You can "Freeze it" with Titanium, or simply go in and add a .bak to the app using Root Explorer or the like. (that method works perfectly fine for me.)

I was just lurking from over in the 3D Forums and noticed this thread.

What's up, people?

Correct. Good luck getting any source though :p
[Windows 8 General] mark_ozon:
good luck man!

wont be easy^^
[Windows 8 General] Archer:
Just set up a poxy server and and use the xda app so you can see how the app communicates with the api (if there is such a thing). I imagine there is one as I can't see it being a scraping app. That would just be horrible!

BTW, I do know it's proxy. I just like the word "poxy".
[Windows 8 General] Ugelvidg:
Thanks guys, the more I look into windows 8 the more it seems the our normal android apps should work on it with a bit of tweaking as long as they are built on java visual basic C++ or c#. Which would be amazingly nice, working on trying to figure out how to do it now. I have a small team working on this acctualy. We are making nice headway, just need to find a way to install them really. :) I hope I can figure it out and supply Windows 8 users with many an app. Wish me luck!

Here we go with yet another unlock solution.

This one applies to almost (if not all) devices which are radio S-off, it’s fairly easy to use and doesn’t wipe data/settings nor have that ugly side effect (when using diag files) in which you lose conectivity to mobile network.

Supported devices so far:

(by the use of revolutionary)

and:

(by the use of unrevoked 3 – not tested)

These are the required steps you have to take:

1. S-off your phone by using Revolutionary (if you haven’t already done that).

2. Fill in the form with the required data. This will generate an unique Config.dat file for your device. Please enter a valid email address, as you’ll be sent there the link to download the file.

This step you'll have to take here

3. Put the file on the root of your sdcard and reboot your phone into HBOOT (adb reboot oem-42). Once you’re there, navigate to Simlock and press Power. The phone will load the file and remove the simlock. Some text will appear on the screen and at a certain point you’ll be asked to press Vol-Up to restart the phone.

4. Just do it, and you’ll be done!

PLEASE NOTE!:

This solution is heavily linked to the device it's being applied to by the use of IMEI, which can be considered a breach in security.

DISCLAIMER:

This solution provided for you on this site is given AS IS and in GOOD FAITH and is based on the research I made. I may not accept any liability or responsibility for the use of this applicaton.

If you still want your device unlocked but not by the use of this method, see this thread!

If you find this tool useful and appreciate my work, Paypal me a beer, it helps development a lot.. ;)

​
[HTC Sensation] david1985:
thanks this is great can't wait for it to work without s-off:)

For s-on we need smartcrd.io, which I haven't figured out yet.

To sim unlock your phone.
[HTC Sensation] dcrin3:
This is some sort of joke right? You want IMEI # sent to you over the internet? How do we know that you're not harvesting them?
[HTC Sensation] RevenG:
I have to agree. This seems very sketchy. I would think twice before sending my IMEI to someone random over the internet. The other two ways to unlock do just fine.
[HTC Sensation] dcrin3:
yeah but the rest of them also nuke all your data. :/ :mad:
[HTC Sensation] sieempi:
Bona Fides

I agree with all of you of being skeptic about this (I would, also).

However, the method is heavily linked to the phone and imei is required. I'm providing all this IN GOOD FAITH and with the hope that I just freed another device from corporate interests.

There are, of course, a lot of other methods of unlock you can use, no heartbreak :)
[HTC Sensation] jdaclutch:
So does this mean my phone is unlocked now:

fat32 init ok

preocess done, reboot device?

Yes, if your phone is s-off. Try another sim card and post back the result!

It worked for me. I put a Verizon sim card in and it acknowledged it.

Infact once I booted it up with the Verizon sim card . A message prompted me to pick a carrier showing Verizon,Vodophone, etc as choices. Which I thought was a nice touch.
[HTC Sensation] RevenG:
If it only had LTE eh? haha
[HTC Sensation] Scoop24:

[HTC Sensation] kirdroid:
No offense to OP... good work on coming with another method.

will this work for evo 4g...and be able to put metro pcs or boost mobile sim card...?
[HTC Sensation] jdaclutch:
unfortunately i dont have a sim card to test with. but it said open CID file fail, does that means its unlocked? or failed to unlock? Anyway, I think it is good to go(hopefully) because I;m going to ship it oversea to soemone

[HTC Sensation] dunbar28205:
So what is happening to our imei info once its received.after all it is our phones identity.
[HTC Sensation] sieempi:
It's encoded and sent to you in a link in the email (that token id). Once you click the link, the token variable will be decoded and based on it a file will be generated (on-the-fly process, no storage). The only mentions of it will be in your email.

Anyway, if you have any little doubt use the other methods.

Unlocked Successfully

and worked for

ATNT

Verizon ( sim card ) &

Simple Mobile

all gave me bars, ATNT and Verizon gave me Edge and* simple mobile (if your place has towers for 4g) gave me 4g. SUPER FAST. im located in Las Vegas, NV. i think its faster then tmobile :P

i just wanted to post and thank you.

this method is quick, fast, easy and wonderful because it doesnt mess with your connections, signals and your data on your phone. i vouch for this method, but like OP said. theres other methods out there if your afraid to share your private IMEI#

i only have one question though.

if i change ROMS, do i have to redo this over again? for every rom i change or kernel, do i have to redo this method?

Umm no answer? Sad. This thread got left alone? Hmm
[HTC Sensation] sieempi:
I'm still keeping an eye on it. The unlock is for good!

As for sending the imei, you'd be surprised how many apps are broadcasting it online..

There's no such thing as phone cloning, that's a vague term, changing your imei doesn't grant you the rights of the initial owner; but you can talk about SIM cloning, which exists and could be very dangerous: it has nothing to to with the imei. This is a very wide topic to discuss, not related with this one though. Every one should know what's this all about and has the freedom to choose.

Via XDA App
[HTC Sensation] jayjaypops:
thanks for clearing up the cloning part. i know most stolen IMEI's, just for being a douche* (sorry for my french) they usually just send it in to get blocked so your unable to use your phone anymore.

as in sending my IMEI. i can careless, i have 4 HTC Sensations just to mess with. I am a cell phone technician and i open phones up, take parts out and put it all back togeather.

im still kind of confused, so if i put a new ROM and Kernel, no need to HBOOT and sim unlock anymore?

[HTC Sensation] jayjaypops:
Sorry for late late reply. When you don't get service and you have installed the sim, you have to change a couple apn settings to get things working like data and mms.

For having an miui rom, mine shows me no bars but have no X on my signals on a sim that's not activated. As for stock rom or any other roms, idk if it'd show the red X even if the sim don't have service.

[HTC Sensation] jayjaypops:
Its supposed to say fail but you have to make sure your s off. Even though your s off and rooted fully, you still have to do either this way or another way to get it unlocked.

I've read some posts here about this but I seem to be the only one who cannot make any calls on account of it.

Whenever I try to make a phone call (no matter which phone number) I get a "conditional call forwarding active" and cannot finalize the call (I cannot use the 3G either). When I try to disable call forwarding I get an error msg saying it's not supported by the operator.

There HAS to be a way to fix this. I cannot make any calls or use 3G.

Try calling your service provider, there maybe a problem with your account.

Sheesh, what's with you guys giving the OP a hard time? He did this out of kindness, just wanting to share his work. It actually isn't in the wrong place, it should definitely be posted in the gsm development area too, but the general section is just fine. Even if he wasn't clear about it only being for gsm; it clearly says SIM unlocking, we don't have Sim cards, and I am wondering if you are unsure if this applies to your phone, or don't know if it has negative affect or can brick your phone do you make a habit of just blindly doing something before you have read enough to know what it does?

If you're soff you're good to use the config.dat method, don't mind the cid error. If you really want to change the cid, just put the desired cid in a text file called cid.txt along the config.dat, on the root of your sdcard, and redo the process. It will also change the cid of your phone and unlock it, without the mentioned error.
