Is there a way to change the default app that opens when you swipe the message icon to unlock using sgs2 lockscreen? Instead of opening messages I want to open go SMS. I know I could use widget lockscreen but I'd rather sgs2.
[Samsung Infuse 4G] Optimus-Prime:
i thought about that too. but i dont think it is possible. i set Handcent to my defaults and it still opens the stock messaging app so i just sticked to it.
[Samsung Infuse 4G] koriotto:
I have NEVER tried this but its an idea...

Set as auto for go sms and then delete the messaging.apk from /system/app so it force opens go Sms? Since it would be the only msg app available... Or... It coukd just FC the comand and crash... Lol idk i repeat ive never tried it i do fine with Samsung messaging
[Samsung Infuse 4G] Grim Reaper:
You might want to freeze the stock app and set go sms as your default one. I know Handcent has that option and then try it.
[Samsung Infuse 4G] Truckerglenn:
If you freeze or delete the stock messging app, you'll probably lose the ability to receive the pictures in mms messages.

I did, but once I unfroze it, mms messages received the pictures again.

I bought my dell streak from US and the carrier is at&t , it has 2.2 installed and the seller said it was unlocked , though when I insert my Indian sim , it says sim is phone network locked.

So anyone please point me to some method of unlocking my streak.

Thanks in advance. :)

You have one of 3 choices... call AT&T and see if they will give you the unlock code

Call Dell directly and ask for the unlock code

Pay a 3rd party to supply you with the code

No one haas answered you becausr first of all these three options are SO OBVIOUS that it doesn't merit a new thread and secondly if you had searched for 5 seconds you would have fiund the info you needed
[HTC EVO 3D] YoMaMa7467:
So for a while I have noticed that when I'm in the camera app (does this on other Roms too) I hear an noise ,quiet and very hard to describe like an electrical pop, if I switch from 3D to 2D and if i view a photo from within the camera app using the thumbnail of the last photo taken. Lately its been bothering me that it makes the noise so I'm just wondering if anyone else's EVO does the same.

[Xoom Themes and Apps] BigBadWolf84:
My wife wants a Xoom to play Bejeweled and solitaire on while on the doctors office. She has no experience with Android. I was wondering when she gets one of these will she be happy if she just used it for those two games? Could I find these type of games for the Zoom? I wish the market let you know what would work on a tablet and what wouldn't. I have a Samsung Vibrant that's rooted and running a custom rom so I am not totally dumb when it comes to Android. She asked for the Zoom but I am not so sure that the Ipad wouldn't work better for her. Any comments would be helpfull. I do plan to take her to Bestbuy and let her try both.
[Xoom Themes and Apps] LegionTHEFecalExcretion:
there is a knockoff bejeweled in the market that works and quite a few solitaire apps. Those two games would be available if she got the Xoom. If those will be her primary uses of the device, get her the Ipad. In the end, its most important that she decide. I love my Xoom, but an Ipad might be more appropriate for a casual tablet user.

:cool:'Keeping it real:cool:
[Xoom Themes and Apps] HuwMorganEvans:
Just a thought here but if she really does only

want it for those games have you considered

buying a lower end tablet?
[Xoom Themes and Apps] kormatoes:
Some 2.2.1 tablets on chinadeals.com under 100£ just placed order for daughters al let you know kk
[Xoom Themes and Apps] BigBadWolf84:
Thanks all. She's kind of Motorola brand loyal and I think she will pick the zoom. Unless the Ipad is prettier to her. I thought about a cheaper brand but there are too many considerations/problems with the lower end tablets. What I don't want is something that will be a problem. I have a phone but would like a tablet to play with myself. I've researched everything from the Viewsonic Viewbook vb730 to the Toshiba Thrive for myself.
[Xoom Themes and Apps] gqstatus0685:
Get her the iPad. It's simpler.
[Xoom Themes and Apps] z06mike:
They just released an awesome solitaire HD game that works and looks beautifully on the Xoom!
[Xoom Themes and Apps] BigBadWolf84:
Thanks again for the help. The Zoom has dropped in price quite a bit. That's one good thing about the amount of Android tablets out there. I've even found a website with disassembly of the Zoom and one selling a battery. I book marked both sites for sure. With my luck she'll pick the Ipad.
[Xoom Themes and Apps] kevdog:
Xoom is only good if you root and install custom ROMs to speed the entire thing up (overclock, etc). For simplicity get the IPad. I have both a Xoom and Ipad. Ipad far simpler to use, more responsive with gyroscope, and screen is much better. There is definitely some annoying things about it however -- safari browser, lack of flash, app store where everything is more expensive. Ipad is pretty idiot proof. I'm a tinkerer, so I prefer the xoom, however each there own.
[Xoom Themes and Apps] okantomi:
You know, with all the great apps that are available for the Xoom, you should get it instead of an Ipad. Your wife may think she just wants to play a few casual games but she may feel different about it later. The Xoom has a lot more capability to expand to her needs than the Ipad. Plus, android is just better...not for pod people. (IMHO.)
[Xoom Themes and Apps] BigBadWolf84:
I honestly think that the Ipad would be the easiest for her. But me, I like to tinker so the Zoom or Galaxy Tab would be the way for me. Gonna try to get her to check out the 7 inchers also. Thanks again for all of your advice and info.
[Xoom Themes and Apps] HuwMorganEvans:
What did she end up going for? ;)
[Xoom Themes and Apps] deanr1977:
Bejeweled 2 works fine on the xoom! Androids much better than the ipad, apple is for the herd.... wanna follow the sheep... get a ipod, ipad, iphone, applemac :p

Above is a link. If you have AT&T you are about to be very happy. Everyone who debranded your phone to get pre-nodo and NoDo, don't forget to go back and re-brand your phone if you want the OFFICIAL Mango update next tuesday, 9/27/2011. Remember, the correct brand if you live in the US is "ATT-US" without quotes. LG Quantum users, remember, when you use MFG...

A-Launch MFG and enter the password 277634#*# when prompted for it.

B-Tap the Engineer Menu item.

C-Tap the Other Setting menu item.

D-the Edit registry menu item.

E-Set the input boxes on this menu as follows:

Select ROOT_PATH: HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE

Input SUB_PATH: \System\Platform\DeviceTargetingInfo\

Input KEY: MobileOperator

Select Data Type: STRING

Input Data: ATT-US

Select "Set"

Then double check and select "Query"

You should get a data string that says

[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\\platform\devicetargetinginfo\]

"mobileoperator" = ATT-US
[Windows Phone 7 General] hardcoreplur:
Thanks for the reminder!
[Windows Phone 7 General] rbrsddn:

[Windows Phone 7 General] MartyLK:
According to the reports, the HD7S will be updated some time later after the other AT&T WP7 phones are updated. But if you're on T-Mobile with an HD7, who knows?
[Windows Phone 7 General] fb401:
Actually, I don't need to rebrand my quantum. I'll still get the att update even with my mo as 000-00 because I have a C900AT.
[Windows Phone 7 General] macjr82:
I wonder. Is thee anything that must be done to ensure your phone stays unlocked after the update?
[Windows Phone 7 General] acefiredx:
Install unlock.xml onto your device, then you can unlock your phone using GPRS settings. There are a lot of threads here which teach you how to do it.
[Windows Phone 7 General] ThomasJ2772:
Does anyone have some instructions for performing this task on a Samsung Focus?
[Windows Phone 7 General] rbrsddn:

[Windows Phone 7 General] ThomasJ2772:
Do you have a link to one of these many threads. Apparently I'm underskilled in performing successful searches within this forum.
[Windows Phone 7 General] acefiredx:
I don't see how this is a valid excuse given that the thread has Samsung Focus in the title.

[Windows Phone 7 General] bobzero:
Could someone please query the default ATT registry values for these two strings for the LG quantum, I've searched thoroughly and cannot find them posted anywhere:

[HKLM\System\Platform\DeviceTargetingInfo\]

MobileOperator = ATT-US

Thank you

@all moderators

due to the high number of new threads about new roms and other and due to the high number of discontinued roms and thread, I want to propose a new rule: all owner of rom/thread that decide to stop relasing, support or other must write at the beginning of the thread title "discontinued since...." and the date of that communication.

With this, all the people that want news, support, new relase or other, doesn't lose time in writing question and waiting for never coming answare and chefs and others don't lose time to answare about something they don't want more...
[Desire HD General] 160bpm:
Or better chnage the title of the thread like [discontinued]

[Desire HD General] Agoattamer:
Rules are good but what about all the other rules on this forum that are broken every day. Look how many application questions are in the general and questions section. How about how many times somebody asks what's the best ROM? Or somebody asks should I change/upgrade phones. The forum is loaded with NOOB questions that have no place in this forum to begin with. How can you even begin to search when the forum is flooded with threads such as these?

But yet you can go to the development section and within 5 minutes browse through the first few pages and get all the info you need about ROMS. Open the thread up and see when the thread was last updated by the developer. Even if the developer has not updated lately there still are others that help and add to the ROMS.

I guess what I am trying to say is why keep putting all the rules and regulations on the developers when it is the noobs causing this forum to be so unsearchable.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Silent25r:
I could connect all of my other android phones to my car stereo with the usb. But now it isn't working at all for me with the GSII.

Thinking maybe I need to put the music on the internal storage and not the microsd?
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] daneurysm:
That's a great question, but, I think the reality of the situation will be worse than that as it doesn't mount as a disk drive in quite the same way. I'm sure AOSP roms can address this, but, until then I'm not so sure.

[Thunderbolt Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] TDubKong:
Just a suggestion.......try to flash a different ROM and see if your camera issue gets fixed. Make sure that you either use ROM manager to install the rom from your sd card and clear the cache and dalvik cache both or do it manually from clockwork mod prior to flashing the rom. If you get it to work with another ROM then switch back to Synergy. Sometimes stuff like that works for no reason whatsoever but it does.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] korenpenza:
Hi for all of the Simple Mobile users. I ran into a difficulties trying to get 4G internet on my new LG G2x with gingerbread update. Per Simple mobile website, to make MMS and internet work all you have to do is create a new APN for Simple Mobile in apn settings (http://www.mysimplemobile.com/Support-Center-Phone-Programming.aspx#LG), move the green button to new APN, hit save, reboot your phone and you good to go. However it says there also that you CANNOT modify original T-mobile APN that is already created in the phone.

Now here is the problem with gingerbread update. After you rebooted your phone you can go ahead and use internet but right when you got your first page the green screen coming up with t-mobile customer service info and it says there that there is no connection with your phone, please call the number provided below. You might have luck actually getting on the first page but after that - nothing. What happens is after you start using internet your phone stop reading information from newly created APN and automatically switching back to the original default T-mobile APN. And it doen't matter if you reboot the phone or not, it will still make an automatic switch.

Now after discussing this issue here on the board, with great help from jboxer we came to a solution. Jboxer said nobody done this before so I figured why not try it and it actually worked.

All you need to do is root the phone using these tools:

1. Install Clockwordmod with NVFlash.

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1056847

2. root it with this zip

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1255214

I am a noob in flashing/rooting the phones but it took me only 20 min. to do this procedure. Right after I root the phone I went to menu - settings - wireless & networks - mobile network settings - access point names - hit on T-mobile APN and now you got the opportunity to modify it! The rest - do exactly what the simple mobile website tells you to do.

Hope this helps!
[T-Mobile LG G2x] jboxer:
That is not how I said to fix it. Rooting the phone doesn't allow you to modify the default settings. In fact, rooting is not even necessary to do my fix. What I said to do is to flash my file that sets a new default APN for Simple Mobile. Here is the thread below. Sucks to be miquoted so badly.

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1271508
[T-Mobile LG G2x] korenpenza:
Well, rooting allowed me to modify default settings.

All I did is rooted the phone like you explained here http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1255214

and I was able to modify original T-mobile APN.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] player911:
lol. Well props for making a flashable fix (best method IMO)

I guess once rooted it allows the settings to stick? Others have had luck with APN managers from the market which backup and write custom APN entries which works.

So the problem is that the APN keeps defaulting to Tmobile and the solution is to somehow edit and Save the default Tmobile APN setting with information that pertains to Simple Mobile so that it sticks.

Glad its fixed either way.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] minhajmsd:
another way to fix it is by going into lg hidden menu

dial 1809#*999#>KR Setting>Set KR Settings

this removes all of the apns including tmo's then u just put in the simple apn nd ur good to go :)
[T-Mobile LG G2x] jboxer:
Rooting would not make a difference here. All rooting means is that apps can request superuser (root) permissions to make changes to the system, and the app that sets the apn never requests root access so rooting the phone would not do anything here. Simple Mobile users were always able to make a new apn (default apns can never be modified). The problem is when they reboot it goes back to TMO's settings. Have you tried rebooting yet. My fix sets a new default apn for Simple Mobile which can be set and stick throughout rebooting, etc.

Also, as stated in my other thread, my fix DOES NOT require root. It only requires that Clockworkmod Recovery be installed.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] mahgninnuc93:
Dude,

I have been using SIMPLE MOBILE forever and not had the problem you are speaking of. Just follow the instructions on the SM website. Set up the new apn. When you reboot hold the volume button up while rebooting and you should be set. Could it be you aren't setting up the apn properly?

And on some of the ROMS you can edit the T-Mobile apn.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] bjlefebvre:
Speaking of Simple Mobile, do they allow using the Wifi hotspot feature on the G2x? I saw in the company's FAQ that tethering was not allowed on SM phones, but wasn't sure if that covered hotspotting as well.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] euklid:
I have a question for you guys, I just got an unlocked G2x to use on simple mobile that I haven't activated, On t-mobiles site it says it supports for 4G, but on simple mobiles site it says it's only approved for 3g data, my question is do I need to get the 3g $40 plan or $60 4g plan to get the most out of the data on this phone?
[T-Mobile LG G2x] jboxer:
Do both plans give you the same volume of data (i.e., 500Mb, 1Gb, etc)? If so, go with the cheaper plan. The systems hardly ever let you get the full speed anyway. In Thailand I only get between 2 to 3Mbps usually and it is plenty fast.

[T-Mobile LG G2x] kameleon25:
I have ran into this problem. I recently obtained a G2X and SIMPLE Mobile SIM and account. I paid the $40 for the "3G" connection. However it seems that the speed is throttled to around 118kbps down. So I did some testing and found that forcing the phone to use "2G Only" allowed up to around 160kbps down. This is just insane! I have read where some people on SIMPLE Mobile 3G have been able to get around 1500-3000kbps but have no idea how they manage that. My Optimus V on Virgin Mobile's 3G averages around 600-1000kbps down. That is usable. The SIMPLE Mobile one is just crap. I hate to have to pay more for less, unless you count the unlimited talk in that, but I may be sticking with VM for a bit longer. Any ideas how I can get the speed up on the SM one without paying the $60/month?
[T-Mobile LG G2x] jose makalolot:
Are you able to send mms or sms on 3g on $40. I cant on mine. I need to use 2g only to do that.
