[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Mussey260:
Hi,

Recently got a Koodo GTi9020A and have tried to use it in the UK with a 3 Sim.

The phone gets a full 3G signal, data and internet work, however there is a problem with making calls when using the 3G signal.

When the phone is turned on I can make one call to a landline, however if I hang up and dial again there is silence. Calls to other mobiles are scrambled.

I have spoken to Google and have been told that the Canadian software will not work with a UK Sim and the phone will need flashed with UK software.

The phone is therefore 'locked' to the Canadian networks. The lady from Google mentioned that a fully unlocked phone would be more expensive!

Any advice appreciated.

Thanks.

that's a manufacturing spl. if it were me, and i wasn't worried about possibly bricking it, id go to the 'tmous test & stock roms' thread HERE, and start flashing those test roms, one by one, starting with 2.07 and working upwards (if it lets you,,) if it doesnt, then id read everything i could find on breaking out of manufacturing spl (there are lots of threads on here about getting rid of 2.02 spl) and then id start at 2.02 rom and work upwards

Hey Guys!

I'm a student and, well, as a student you got some spare time. Whether on train in the morning, or during lecture :D

I always missed a particular game I played when I had my old HTC Magic - A Planarity clone called Untangle. I searched the Marketplace, but could only find paid apps :(

Well, spare time + computer science student = great opportunity.

So I recreated the game on my own and published it for free (although it features ads - even a student needs to buy a beer sometimes ). It is a Mango Game for Windows Phone, and mixes Silverlight and XNA Content. I designed it as metrofied as possible, and I hope you will have as much fun playing it as I had while creating it :D

What it features:

- 50 unique, handcrafted levels

- Silverlight/XNA Mixed Game for full gaming-pleasure and full metro-pleasure

- Highscore

- Instant Save, always saves your current gamestate

- Of course, instant resume in its full mango-glory

Give it a try and let me know what you think!

Deep Link to Zune:

Note:

Soon, a Premium Version to a very cheap price will follow. With 25 new levels and without Ads. So if you wanna support me a beer (or part of it :D) directly or just untangle even more, give it a try!

I've searched around and found some threads on this but no real solutions so maybe someone can point me in the right direct.

So I can send to text to everyone on my contacts list except one person. They can text me, and we can call each other but when I try sending them a text it acts like it's sending then nothing happens, no error codes. I was able to text this person before as well. I've tried re-adding the contact and even sending the text message directly to the number with no avail. Any ideas?

Hi everyone, just registered here as am having a few pretty big annoyances with my Sensation.

Just wanted to chip in with my experiences of back-button issues; I've already had to send one Sensation back because the button's microswitch went faulty (was stuck on) and it looks like this is a weak link with this hardware.

Has anyone else had the power switch fail on them completely?

Hi,

[Desire HD General] jwai:
I rooted my DHD a while ago, and it's currently running Virtuous Unity 2.37, but I've been struggling to get the damn thing unlocked from the Vodafone network.

I obtained the unlock code from them, but whenever I try to enter it in while using a non-Vodafone SIM, it rejects it as 'incorrect password'. Vodafone insist that it's the correct one from HTC, and keep sending me the same code.

Does rooting and installing a new ROM affect the network locking at all? Is there anything that can be done now?

[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] d_freshmaker:
I am admittedly a noob, but I have searched exhaustively, and cannot find out how to accomplish this without installing another ROM. I was able to get a used N1 that is stock and unrooted to use on an upcoming trip overseas. I hoped to use it while I was there, but recently found out that I would need VPN access to access many services.

I just got the 2.3.6 update for the N1, but found out my phone has to be rooted for OpenVPN to work. Is there a tool that I can use to root this phone, leaving stock Android on it? I'm leaving in a couple of days and don't really have a lot of time to learn about installing a custom ROM or time to install that custom ROM.

Thanks for your help.
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] GldRush98:
This is covered in the wiki I believe, but the short of it goes:

1) "oem fastboot unlock"

2) Flash new recovery image (I prefer AmonRA, CWM is good too though) from fastboot

3) Once you have your new recovery, flash the super user zip

4) All done, you now have root access.

This is a pretty good guide (from the wiki): http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=636795
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] geekaren:
Like the international SGS2, the E4GT has an internal counter that increments every time you flash a kernel, ROM, etc.

I'd heard that a "usb jig" could be used to reset that counter to zero, and was curious so I bought one.

Sure enough...

1) turn off the phone

2) insert the jig into micro-USB port

3) press power button

4) Voila! the display then shows "Custom binary download: No" (where it used to show a count)

See link: Photos are from another xda user who used a jig on his SGS2 but the resulting screen display is the same for E4GT (except ours, of course, displays D710 at top): http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=16179541&postcount=10

The jig itself is tiny, photo below.

Edited to add: Thanks to Daneurysm for confirming that using jig also gets rid of yellow triangle on boot screen (see his post on page 2).

Edited 10/4: Also see Blownco's video showing how it works http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7mcsEePWpQw

[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] m_reyna_16:
what was the steps to do it? just plug and get into download mode?
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] geekaren:
It was even easier than that!

1) turn off the phone

2) insert the jig into micro-USB port

3) press power button

4) the display then shows "Custom binary download: No" (where it used to show a count)

(I'll edit the original post to make the steps clearer)

look it up on ebay... its called a "usb jig" samsung put a counter on our phones for when we flash anything on our phones.... whether its a kernel, rom, etc... and when you put your phone on download mode, it will show you the number of counts... and with the "usb jig" it brings it back to zero and samsung nor sprint will know we rooted our phones and flashed custom firmware on it

Ok, If like me you should have your Mango update official through Zune and you haven't there's a way to force Zune to update your Windows Phone 7 Device.

This worked for me on my HD7.

What you need to do

1) Connect your Windows Phone to Zune.

2) Make sure your defiantly connected via USB.

3) Navigate to the settings and then to phone settings.

4)Click the update button. (Zune will now check for updates for your phone)

5) After a COUPLE of SECONDS when Zune still says "checking for update", quickly disconnect from your internet connection. Disconnect whilst Zune is still checking for updates.

6) You will either get a connection error, or you will get a message saying there is an update available for your device. If may take a few times of connecting and disconnecting but you will get the update available message.

7)After receiving the Update Available message, connect back to your internet and click update.

8) Complete the update process. This could take up too 50mins depending on your internet connection.

9) BOOOM. Hello MANGO! =)

I'll never buy a Mac again.

Having a complete and utter ***** of a time waiting for, then updating Parallels, then extending my virtual disk, etc., etc., just to install this update.

Update: Some time later, after extending the virtual disk (Parallels), re-installing a bunch of stuff, etc., etc., the update is downloading. All of this is to say that you can follow the forced update procedure using a Mac and Parallels. I probably could have done it using W7Phone Connector and the wireless toggle method, but I live the hard way.

[Just make sure your SIM card is actually IN the phone ... and] [C]lick "Yes" when Parallels asks you whether you'd like to continue the USB device settings in your virtual machine; i.e., when your phone automatically restarts, Parallels won't automatically assign its USB connection to your virtual machine unless you've already set it up to automatically assign the connection to XP/7.

Does this voide the phone's warranty?

[HD7 General] DanielT3235:
I find it hard to believe, it only sounds bad because you say we "forced" the update, but it came from the official source, we just tricked it into letting us have it, i find it hard to believe it would void your warranty, seen as its the official update from an official source, your supplier probably thinks your flashed it yourself.
