[General Questions and Answers] gamelord21:
You think I should try another ROM?

what ROM do you recommend?

I just want the battery to last at least till the end of the day... mine runs out at mid day and without using it...

still have the speech to text problem as well

Hi All,

I posted this in the SGS4G section, but feel I may have some luck here..

Is it possible to force data roaming to pick up an ATT 3g signal? I have Tmo but only edge where I live (USA), and for $30/month data edge just isn't going to cut it!

I have messed around with "service mode" to select a specific band frequency, but I either get edge or no service at all.

On a side note, my sgs4g is unlocked and I was able to get 3g when using a straighttalk sim (again ATT signal). Is it possible to get connected when using a Tmo sim?

Another thing I tried was (using my Tmo Sim) editing the APN settings to wap.cingular and THEN using service mode to switch frequencies. Doing this I was able to get the 3G icon, but my browser showed an error "No data connection"

Any Ideas? This could save me a HEFTY E.T.F. .... :/
[Networking] Bierce22:
no tmo and att uses different frequencys so they cant roam of each other.
[Networking] fredmc2020:
My sgs4g allows me to select from 850, 900, 1800, 1900 as well as "wcdma" 1700, 1900, 2100. I am pretty sure att is at least one of those frequencies, especially since I got full 3g service with a straighttalk Sim.
[Networking] synaesthetic:
That phone should get HSPA+ from T-Mobile. Are there no 3G towers in your area at all?
[Networking] fredmc2020:
When I travel outside of my town (an hour of driving) I can pick up 3g, and in more populated areas I can get 4g. Friends of mine have 3g in my town through ATT (they have ATT service plans), but I can't seem to connect.

I've been reading online that ATT doesn't allow roaming for data from other carrier plans, so I am not sure if this is the true problem or if there is a way to circumvent it..
[Networking] BenKranged:
You got it. This is why the straighttalk (or an at&t) sim makes it work. There is no roaming on at&t's network with a t-mobile sim.

What phone should i buy from this: atrix 4g, galaxy s2, sensation, optimus 3d?

What other phone you recomand me?(no evo 3d,is to expensive).

Which is the coolest phone?
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] LordManhattan:
I would go for the Galaxy S2. Good screen, nice and thin design, fast GPU and CPU. The Sensation is also very good so i would choose one of these.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jithraj:
My choice will be HTC Sensation. Sleek design and good UI insist me to run for Sensation.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] yagya:
Galaxy S2 is the best smartphone with good specs, nice ui and fast processor, super AMOLDED screen ...

It is also regarded as iphone5 competitor so go for it....
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Shan986:

[HTC Sensation] Traffik:
Hi,

I have have been using alpha4 and it works great for me, a couple of small things that need ironing out for sure but Im finding it VERY usable.

I would like to upgrade to alpha5 but I have spent a long time installing and configuring LauncherPro and I am wondering if I will loose all this.

Do I need to do a wipe and a fresh install to get 5 or do I just install over the top and will it keep my settings in place or not?

Thanks!

Nat.
[HTC Sensation] g3c:
Just flash over alpha 4. no probs. I went from alpha 3 to 4 witch launcher pro and everythink was in place

Edit: sorry i thought you were talking about adw launcher. I would make a backup in every case because adw could replace your launcher pro settings.
[HTC Sensation] Traffik:
Ok thanks!
[HTC Sensation] cmarti:
Just upgrade and you won't have any problems, when you are working with CM you don;t have to worry because all apps ans setting are secured when you upgrade.

Are you getting 4G on CM7?
[HTC Sensation] supercobaltss:
Backup your launcherpro settings in preferences it saves to SD card the only thing it doesnt restore is your Widgets.
[HTC Sensation] Traffik:
Cool, thanks for that.

I'm in the UK so no 4G here!

Hi guys, looking for some feed back on my app. based on website sleepytimer.com

I've seen 2 apps on droid marketplace but all the comments I read complain that there is no alarm.

So my app provides the same features plus adding alarms. Be gentle :)

[edited] 10/12 now on marketplace (free)

[Android Apps and Games] JohnM:
This looks really good. I'll test it out and tell you what I think...

EDIT: This app is amazing. This will be really useful for me since I hate waking up tired and groggy.

I am making some small tweaks to the app as well as making a better icon and will upload it soon.

EDIT2: I finished the small edits! Check it out!
[Android Apps and Games] RobbieRobski:
Hah, you noticed my typo Choice a mode hehe.

Can you tell me what else you did? I already had a revision underway and an icon+splash screen worked out

I kind of like your icon though too, I just thought of an interesting hybrid. Taking my icon and then instead of eyeballs, I'll put sunglasses on him kind of like some Oakley oilrigs and instead of a regular dark lense it will be the alarm LED with a time.
[Android Apps and Games] JohnM:
All I really did was changed the icon and fixed typos and stuff to make it look more professional. I also added some stuff just in case you want an 'about' tab when you press the menu button on your phone.

So, I was wondering how many people here know about USB test jigs.

In all but the most extreme cases, they can unbrick a Galaxy phone. So far, every Galaxy-class device has worked with these. I was only wondering because all of the threads about people returning their phones to Sprint because the somehow bricked it.

I would say at this point, that anyone who wants to mess with one of these phones, such as flashing a ROM, CWM, or one of these early root methods, should either make or buy one. If you don't want to make one, they're on Amazon, which is about as mainstream as you can get.

This message brought to you by the number seven, and the letter Q.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] smark72:
Can you explain what a jig is? sounds complicated.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] stefan.buddle:
Basically if you bork your phone and cannot acces "Dowload Mode" to flash a new Rom by using the 3 button press, this Jig will put your phone in download mode for you so you wouldnt have to return your phone to Sprint

[General Questions and Answers] JogeTheMan:
If I want to update my MIUI rom, can I do it by only removing cache only or do I have to do the factory reset?
[General Questions and Answers] LordManhattan:
Only cache and dalvik cache (advanced-->clear dalvik cache) is needed. If you're running 2.3.3 or 2.3.4 it's a good idea to do a full wipe before upgrading to 2.3.5.

Remember next time that you only need to wipe the caches and simply flash the zip. Easy peasy!

- If you want to flash a new ROM, then you'll need to do a full wipe.

- If you only want to upgrade from 1.x to 2.x you only need to clear cache and dalvik.

- If you want to upgrade, but the upgrade includes jumping to a new version of Android (2.3.3->2.3.4->-2.3.5 etc.) then it's a good idea to do a full wipe. It's not needed, but again, it's a good idea.
[General Questions and Answers] rddocke:
i personaly never do a factory reset or full wipe unless its recommended by the DEV. this way all my settings and aps are saved and still in their respective spots when switching over. most of my experiences are trial and error based.

just remember always NAND backup before you do anything. its just a android life saver. this way if something doesnt workout you just go back and start over
[General Questions and Answers] JogeTheMan:
Thats what I thought. Thanks for the answer.
[Windows Phone 7 Development and Hacking] Heathcliff74:
There are many possible situations where you want to deploy some files to a certain folder on your phone. Copying music, ringtones, provxml, etc. This can be difficult if you don't have a working file-explorer for your device.

This method will let you deploy files to your developer-unlocked WP7 device, as long as it is developer-unlocked. It works on any brand and any version of Windows. It also works if you have Mango and your device is Interop-Locked. You won't be able to overwrite ROM-files!

At first I thought this method had access to all folder on the phone. Unfortunately that does not seem to be true. When I tested this, I thought I had removed all policies I added to get root-access on my device. This was not true, so when I tested this I had more access than on a regular WP7 device. It is still possible to write to the root-folder, create new folders in the root-folder, "My Documents", "Applications", etc. Unfortunately it does not seem to be possible to write to \Windows. :(

Follow these instructions:

1. Download this file: File Deployer by Heathcliff74 v2.xap.

2. Open your favorite archiver (WinZip / WinRar / 7Zip).

3. In the archiver open the xap file.

4. In Windows Explorer (or on your desktop) create the folder structure where you want to deploy files on your phone. So if you want to copy files to the \My Documents\My Ringtones, then first create a folder "My Documents" and in that folder create a folder "My Documents".

5. Put the files you want to deploy in the folders you created.

6. Rename the root-folders you created and add this at the start:

XX-XX-XX-XX-

It must be exactly like that! Only do this for the root-folders. So in the example I gave, the "My Documents" folder will become "XX-XX-XX-XX-My Documents". The deeper folders, like "My Ringtones" will remain as they are.

7. Drag the folders into the xap-archive.

8. Close the archiver tool.

9. Open the xap-file in a hex-editor.

10. Search and replace these hex-values (all occurrences!!):

Search: 58 58 2D 58 58 2D 58 58 2D 58 58 2D

Replace with: 2E 2E 2F 2E 2E 2F 2E 2E 2F 2E 2E 2F

11. Save and close the hex-editor.

12. Use any Windows Phone App Deployer to deploy the contents of the xap-file to your phone.

Hope this works for you! :D

Good luck,

Heathcliff74
[Windows Phone 7 Development and Hacking] derausgewanderte:
beautiful, I wonder if somebody can write this into a program. the program asks which folders, which folders are root and what files to transfer. then does the rest (creates the folder structure, renaming, packaging, hex replacing) and spits out the xap ready for deployment. I know that I will screw this up with all the xes and hex replacements :o

too bad I can't program :(
[Windows Phone 7 Development and Hacking] Heathcliff74:
This is not working as expected. It seemed I had some policies in place, that allowed me to do more than on a 'normal' WP7 device. It does still seem to work for a lot of folders, like the root-folder, "My Documents", "Applications", etc. But it does not work for the "Windows" folder. Too bad :( I will update the opening post with this info.

I will also update the xap, because not all archivers did handle the xap well. That should be fixed with the new xap.

Ciao,

Heathcliff74
[Windows Phone 7 Development and Hacking] parnunu:
if it can write to \Windows.Many people can fix Interop-Locked device.
[Windows Phone 7 Development and Hacking] Arktronic:
LOL! I'm surprised the deployment system accepts ../ paths, and that it ignores the ZIP CRC checks that obviously become invalid when you hex-edit that stuff. Good find!
[Windows Phone 7 Development and Hacking] Heathcliff74:
Finding exploits is always about finding things a system accepts that it really shouldn't accept ;)

The zip crc's are only on the file-contents, not on the folder-structures and headers.

I suppose I should have looked up the ZIP specs before jumping to conclusions ;)

[Windows Phone 7 Development and Hacking] pauldomag:
can anyone suggest an app that can browse the folders on my phone? No need to have write access, just read. I just need to have the path of the Isolated Storage folder for the Kindle application. I want to deploy my .mobi ebooks into my phone.
[Windows Phone 7 Development and Hacking] GoodDayToDie:
No such app exists, aside from the HTC filesystem browsers (TouchXplorer, Advanced Explorer, WPDM on the PC) and WP7 Root Tools (currently Samsung gen1 only). Apps don't have the required permissions by themselves even to do read operations on the majority of the filesystem.

However, if you just need the path to an app's IsoStore, it's \Applications\Data\<ProductIdGuid>\Data\IsolatedStore. For Kindle, the GUID is 48195FB4-EE0E-E011-9264-00237DE2DB9E (as in, \Applications\Data\48195FB4-EE0E-E011-9264-00237DE2DB9E\Data\IsolatedStore\). I don't know how the app organizes its files within that folder, though.
[Windows Phone 7 Development and Hacking] pauldomag:
can you confirm if the kindle isolated storage path is "\Applications\Data\<ProductIdGuid>\Data\IsolatedStore" or is it "\IsolatedStorage"?

One last thing, If I decide to uninstall the XAP, will all of the files also gets removed?
[Windows Phone 7 Development and Hacking] GoodDayToDie:
It's IsolatedStore. Also, uninstalling an app does not remove files deployed this way.
[Windows Phone 7 Development and Hacking] erebusting:
how did you become so good at finding exploits in wp7?
[Windows Phone 7 Development and Hacking] snailium:
I'm trying to use this way to transfer game saves. But it always says something like "The group policy blocks this app."

Can someone confirm this deploy method still valid under the following circurstances?

- System version 8107

- app IsolatedStore, i.e. \Applications\Data\<guid>\Data\IsolatedStore

- app is deployed by Marketplace
[Windows Phone 7 Development and Hacking] GoodDayToDie:
You can't install homebrew (unsigned) XAP files with the same GUID as installed Marketplace apps. You also can't use IsolatedStorageExplorer or anything built on it on Marketplace apps (or their data, rather) - it will give you that "group policy" error if you try.

However, the deployer hack should work fine for adding or replacing files in a Marketplace app if the GUID used for the deployment "app" is different.
[Windows Phone 7 Development and Hacking] snailium:
Well, now I can't replace any file under \Application using the deployment "app".

The file I'm trying to deploy.

\Applications\Data\788c002f-5649-e011-854c-00237de2db9e\Data\IsolatedStore\game.sav
[Windows Phone 7 Development and Hacking] GoodDayToDie:
OK, I don't know if you've got the deployment "app" set up correctly or not, because you haven't given me enough info to tell me. I really don't care what the name or exact path you're trying to deploy to is; it's more a question of where you're deploying "from" that matters. What is the GUID of your deployment "app"? What is the path from it to the target within the XAP file?

This hack has been confirmed to work on 8107, although admittedly not on files under \Applications. I'd suggest that you restart the phone, and don't launch the game you're targeting. Then try deploying again (after making sure you've got the path right and that your deployment app isn't using a conflicting GUID) so you're sure you're not trying to overwrite a locked file.
[Windows Phone 7 Development and Hacking] Heathcliff74:
Unfortunately this is expected behavior. You can deploy files to \Applications\Install\, but not to \Applications\Data\. The reason is that process that deploys the files does not have access to the data-folder.

Ciao,

Heathcliff74
[Windows Phone 7 Development and Hacking] GoodDayToDie:
Ah, thanks for that info Heathcliff74. I hadn't checked the policy database yet; seeing as everywhere else except \Windows seems to be permitted I wasn't expecting a problem.
[Windows Phone 7 Development and Hacking] snailium:
Thanks Heathcliff74 for the clearification.

It seems WP7 has strict policies to protect files.
[Windows Phone 7 Development and Hacking] GoodDayToDie:
It's too bad, too; I was thinking this would be a way to restore app data from a backup (made on an unlockable device) to a new phone (that can't be unlocked yet). Apparently not...

[Windows Phone 7 Development and Hacking] DavidinCT:
So, if I just have a Mango device that is Dev unlocked, I can use this and get a "full unlock" on my phone ?

I really would like to know if it works on one of the HTC leaked roms. I really want to upgrade due to the better performance, DLNA support, better radio, etc but, I can't get a "full unlock" on it due to not going back to NoDO (and there is NO backup rom for the Verizon HTC Trophy, Yes, I have looked).

Does this have the INTEROP tag in the app ? If it does not, it should install no problem on a dev unlocked device.

Almost tempted to go back to NoDo and upgrade with only a Dev unlock to 7720 to try this, if I can get a full unlock from that point, I know it will work and this would be epic !

This sounds awsome if it works on HTC devices....
